xsdgen issue - xmlns in tags about go-xml HOT 3 OPEN

Just so I understand, would this be an acceptable marshalling?

<BaseFilterType xmlns="http://www.fdsn.org/xml/station/1" name="foo" resourceId="1">
  <Description>blah blah blah</Description>
</BaseFilterType>

from go-xml.

The above marshalling should be doable by adding an XMLName attribute to any structs, and removing any duplicate namespaces from the field, e.g.

type BaseFilterType struct {
	XMLName     xml.Name  `xml:"http://www.fdsn.org/xml/station/1 BaseFilterType"`
	ResourceId  string    `xml:"resourceId,attr"`
	Name        string    `xml:"name,attr"`
	Items       []string  `xml:",any"`
	Description string    `xml:"Description"`
}

See https://play.golang.org/p/ek-mHr-zFY . It still has the problem that it could introduce errors when decoding, as there could be multiple "Description" elements with different name spaces.

This also raises an issue I had not considered -- case mismatch in root-level element names. If the type name in the schema was baseFilterType, this package would produce invalid output when marshalling a variable of type BaseFilterType -- we would see <BaseFilterType>...</BaseFilterType>. So the XMLName field seems to be necessary for the case when the case doesn't match.
