Re: Misbehaving with the <rule> syntax

;) Sorry I meant the attribute "observes" (not element) doesn't receive 
namespace attributes either.

The following fails on my code:

<broadcaster id="ruleBroadcaster" urn:reason="string"/>
<rule observes="ruleBroadcaster"/>
  [..]
</rule>

The DOM inspector shows the <rule> element having an attribute of 
"reason=string" not "urn:reason=string"

The rule also checks HasAssertion() for the string "reason" not the 
namespace uri #reason
