yes you'll find more or less the same in the XSL stylesheet for MathML
(mine) at http://www.w3.org/Math/XSL


    <xsl:element name="{name(.)}"

you might want to use local-name rather than name their otherwise you'll
pick up any prefix that was used in the source, in which case you could
more simply use <xsl:copy> by using local-name() you can force (or
actually, request) that the output be unprefixed.

yes, correct and redundant, it conforms to both MathML DTD and also an
allowed serialisation by the xslt system, although most XSLT engines
remove redundant namespace declarations.
