Description
AnyNode changing namespace prefix to first one encountered for sibling nodes (if the namespace uri is reused).
If AnyNode has the following XML
<f:firstname xmlns:f="http://name.namespace">
<f:text>John</f:text>
</f:firstname>
<l:lastname xmlns:l="http://name.namespace" >
<l:text>Right</l:text>
</l:lastname>
The namespace after unmarshalling & marshalling for the second node (re-using namespace URI but a different prefix)
is changed to the namespace prefix of the first one i.e.
After an unmarshall and marshall, the resulting XML will be
<f:firstname xmlns:f="http://name.namespace">
<f:text>John</f:text>
</f:firstname>
<!-- Note the change here, the XML is invalid now -->
<f:lastname xmlns:l="http://name.namespace">
<f:text>Right</f:text>
</f:lastname>
The marshalled XML now has "f:lastName" with namespace declaration of "xml:l", resulting in INVALID XML.
