Talk:XSLTForms/XForms 1.1

One of the items currently in the list of quirks reads

"there are some situations where a dummy element or attribute is to be added anywhere in the XForms document, such as prefix:dummy='dummy'."

If someone who understands this point could explain it a bit more clearly, it would be helpful. At the moment, I don't know whether this means

"in order to work around a bug in Mozilla, XSLTForms will sometimes insert some unexpected dummy element or attribute into your document. You might think something horrible has gone wrong. But it's OK, don't panic."

Or

"In order to help XSLTForms work around a bug in Mozilla, you must sometimes add a dummy element or attribute."

When are such dummies needed? Where? What are the symptoms of the problem? (And if it's possible to explain it, how does a dummy element or attribute help?)
