Orbeon formatting.xpl to show xmlns declarations?

Code

<xforms:output mediatype="text/html" value="xxforms:serialize(xxforms:call-xpl('oxf:/ops/utils/formatting/format.xpl', 'data', instance('message-instance'), 'data')/*, 'xml')"/>

Input

<REPC_IN000023NL xmlns="urn:hl7-org:v3">
    ....
    <hl7:patientID xmlns:hl7="urn:hl7-org:v3">
        <hl7:value root="2.16.840.1.113883.2.4.6.3" extension="999999035"/>
    </hl7:patientID>
    ....
</REPC_IN000023NL>

Expected a rendering that includes the namespace declaration, but instead the rendering omits exactly that.

Bug or feature?

Indeed, the namespace declaration for the hl7 prefix, which isn't on the root element, is not produced:

I'd recommend you don't use that format.xpl; it isn't maintained, has performance issues with large documents, and, as you noticed, doesn't handle some corner cases well (i.e. it's buggy!).

Instead, you can use the fr:code-mirror component, which delegates formatting to CodeMirror. It won't do the indenting for you, but Saxon can do it for you. This example will give you the following output:
