Default namespacing XSLT... a weird learning experience

Kenny and I ran into an interesting debacle yesterday while attempting to fix a bug. This debacle dealt with the use of XML namespaces and XSL transforms. Even though both of us are proficient with XSL, we still found ourselves in a 2 hour bug fix over what eventually turned out to be a simple namespacing problem.

The rule is... if an XML document has a default namespace it must be matched in XSL by prefixing.
