Namespaces don't need to be defined in the root element, they can be
defined on the element using the element or attribute itself, or even
in appropriate parent elements, IIRC.
But of course they need to be defined somewhere. The name of the
namespace prefix is irrelevant. It get's resolved from the definition.
