------- Additional Comments from Julien Chaffraix <jchaffraix at webkit.org>
Sorry to reply to the discussion this late.

I had the same thoughts as Eric about the specification.
Document.createElementNS will create an XHTML element per DOM spec (as it
splits the localName to fill the prefix which is not done in HTML). To be
consistent with the DOM then we also need to have Element.nodeName match the
XHTML behaviour. This is also what the other browser are doing.

As we do not have a way to know whether an HTMLElement represents internally an
XHTML element, the prefix check will correct at least part of the issue
(non-prefixed element will continue to fail).
Clearing the review flag as I would like to update the test and the code to
account for this.
