Another important aspect of attributes - they can be layered
on by the parser. I.e. defaulted. XLINK and AF's in
general make use of this.

In an attribute free world we would need an element only way
of achieving the same thing.

<xlink:xlink>
<xlink:simple>
<xlink:etn>xref</xlink:etn>
<xlink:etn>seealso</xlink:etn>
</xlink:simple>
...
</xlink:xlink>
