@* and xmlns:xsl



Hi.

Any reason for @* not catching attributes prefixed by
xmlns:?

Eg. given the XML

<a foo="bar" xmlns:bb="http://www.host.top/"; bar="baz"/>

Applying the stylesheet

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"; 
version="1.0">
<xsl:output method="text"/>
<xsl:template match="a">
<xsl:apply-templates select="@*"/>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="@*">
<xsl:text>  </xsl:text><xsl:value-of select="name()"/>:<xsl:value-of 
select="."/>
</xsl:template>

</xsl:stylesheet>

Yields output

   foo:bar  bar:baz

I had the understanding that @ was the attribute axis and * means any.
