Why is it that XQuery has inbuilt namespaces such as "xs", but XSLT does
not?
XSLT uses XML syntax and thus inherits namespace processing from XML
(plus adds few more bits like description of namespace prefix binding
for QNames).
XQuery uses its own syntax which creates space for various defaulting.
Of course you could do this for XSLT, but then you will not be able to
use real XML parser for reading of XSLT files.
