RE: [xsl] question about implements-prefix

In the case of the original question, the namespace URI mattered. Not
putting in the correct URI for the "user" namespace meant that the extension
function in question would not be recognized.  

In my example, I mentioned XSL's namespace as an example of something that
if you change it, your stylesheet won't work as you might expect, which is
an easy example to try to see what happens when you just put in any old URI.
When I teach XML, I use that very example to show how namespaces work and
what URIs mean to processors, and it's a pretty effective example.

Not really, in that if you put _any_ string there except the namespace
names of xslt and msxsl the stylesheet will act in exactly the same way.
