As for the "namespaces aren't SGML" argument, it doesn't seem to be an issue - we just have to settle on a "namespace prefix" and hardcode it in the DTD.
You can actually do a little better than that. It can be parameterized in such a fashion that the prefix can be changed in the internal DTD subset. XHTML, MathML, SVG, and all the recent W3C recs do this.
I gather from reading the various W3C standards documents that anyway this has to be done in XML too if one wants valid documents, right ?
Yes.
