That's an interesting point - can you have a well-formed XML
document that isn't namespace-well-formed?
Yes, you can. No-one uses them nowadays, but in principle you can have a
document that conforms to the base XML recommendation but doesn't conform to
the Namespaces Rec. XSLT has always insisted that the source document
conforms to both.
Is it that "well-formed" existed before namespaces came
along, and now saying "well-formed" means both?
No, to require both you have to specify "namespace-well-formed".
