That's exactly what the XSL WG is chartered to work on: the tag stuff.
If Microsoft had claimed <ms:eval> as a prioprietary extension to XSL,
I may have disagreed that it were necessary, but I would not have
argued that they were wrong.  But they are asserting in their examples
that there exists an <eval> element in the XSL namespace as defined by
the XSL working draft, which is simply, unequivocally, undeniably, and
inarguably FALSE.  The thing they have documented IS NOT XSL.  They
knew that; I can only assume that they didn't care.  Welcome to
Microsoft.  Where do you want to go today?  Uh-huh... that's nice.
Here's where you're going.
