Sorry, that was correct but not very helpful. If the namespace is known to
you only as the value of a parameter, the way to output an element using
that namespace is, for example:
<xsl:element name="local" namespace="{$ns-param}">

But in this case as is the case if writing xpath valued attributes,
this isn't quite what you want to do, as you want to generate a
namespace declaration that isn't used in the element or attribute name.
(Actually I didn't think that you did need that for schemas, but you
certainly do for writing xpath expressions)
