actually that one won't, it was my booboo, <xsl:param name="name"
select="concat(substring-before(name(),':'),':',local-name())"/> will
produce the same as name()
this is because the original thread Re: [xsl] Identity transformation
(without using xsl:copy) wanted to copy nodes(including namespace nodes)
without using xsl:copy.

yeah I forgot namespace-uri(), and I agree it's not generally significant,
but for some reason they wanted to copy a namespace node without xsl:copy,
which this did, in msxml 4 at least, then when I did it I thought: "there
must be a simpler way to do this, without using xsl:copy of course"
