Something like:

<xsl:template match="myns:@* | myns:*">
  <xsl:copy>
    <xsl:apply-templates select="@*"/>
    <xsl:apply-templates/>
  </xsl:copy>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="node()"/>

<xsl:template match="*">
  <xsl:apply-templates/>
</xsl:template>

This, of course, is a problem that language designers should consider.

I assume that namespaces, from my experience with xsd more than xsl,  
are things that are meant to be observed by translators. I now begin  
to wonder how I specify operations on elements in a particular name  
space but from what Michael has said it seems they are simply  
"syntactic sugar" to enable unique identification (avoid naming  
conflicts) in single passes. Is there a way to specify that a style  
sheet processes only the elements of a particular name space? I don't  
think there is, but it sounds like something I could use for code  
modularity.

With respect,
Steven
