removeXMLNamespaces

Remove namespace definitions from a XML node or document

This function and its methods allow one to remove one or more XML namespace definitions on XML nodes within a document.

removeXMLNamespaces(node, ..., all = FALSE, .els = unlist(list(...)))

`node`	an XMLInternalNode or XMLInternalDocument object
`...`	the names of the namespaces to remove or an XMLNamespaceRef object returned via `getNodeSet` or `xpathApply`.
`all`	a logical value indicating whether to remove all the namespace definitions on a node.
`.els`	a list which is sometimes a convenient way to specify the namespaces to remove.

This function is used for its side-effects and changing the internal node.
