  The following document is well-formed (as per "Extensible
Markup Language (XML)") but not namespace-well-formed (as
per "Namespaces in XML"):

    <!-- No namespace declaration. -->
    <a:elem>
      <!-- More than one colon. -->
      <a:b:elem/>
    </a:elem>

  Strictly speaking, I don't think "well-formed" as nothing
to do with namespaces.  A lot of XML tools now support
"Namespaces in XML" (so restrict the possible document
instances), and it is convenient to say "well-formed" for
both the well-formedness defined in the XML REC and the
namespace-well-formedness.

  But I'm not a namespaces expert.  Maybe someone here will
can confirm.
