------- Comment #18 from bug at annevankesteren.nl  2006-10-11 00:58 PDT -------
What Opera does is the following:

* If it's an XML document you take document.documentElement.namespaceURI
  and use that as a namespace. If that doesn't exist (or is null) you
  use null.
* If it's an HTML document you create a "HTML element" which basically
  behaves like the same element in the XHTML namespace.

This makes pages using document.createElement with <xhtml:html> as root element
work as expected and the same goes for <svg:svg> as root element.

Note that the special case for HTML wouldn't be a special case anymore if the
parsing section of HTML5 would be implemented.
