Dear all @BaseX, in last snapshot,

When adding/replacing a document with db:add/db:replace,

If xml content is not a document-node, but an element, namespaces definitions are just forgotten in target document.

The root element has a prefix, but no definition.

Result is valid if you do not pass $xml but document { $xml }

In the documentation, one can see that input can be a string (file path or serialized xml) or a document node.

Maybe these functions could abort when an element is given ?

Thank you for your fantastic tool !

Best regards,
