technically, you are meant to validate all input and ensure that the  
correct namespace.

on NX-OS at least, we figured that was counterproductive, so by  
default don't validate the namespace and perhaps burn some CPU cycles  
to allow any namespace.
if you wish strict interpretation with NX-OS, you can configure it  
with "xml server validate" in the switch config.  its off by default.
