	/// Encapsulate Namespace logic for use by SAX drivers.

	/// it tracks the declarations currently in force for each context and
	/// automatically processes qualified XML 1.0 names into their Namespace 
	/// parts; it can also be used in reverse for generating
	/// XML 1.0 from Namespaces.
	/// Namespace support objects are reusable, but the reset method 
	/// must be invoked between each session.

		/// first ContentHandler::startPrefixMapping() callback. A boolean flag can be
		/// used to track whether a context has been started yet. When either of those
		/// methods is called, it checks the flag to see if a new context needs to be
		/// started. If so, it starts the context and sets the flag. After 
		/// ContentHandler::startElement() does that, it always clears the flag.
		/// 
		/// Normally, SAX drivers would push a new context at the beginning of each
