Do you mean by this question "can we put the vocabulary into a particular 
namespace"?

Sure, but it will take some time for me to change my Python programs to be 
namespace aware.  Maybe I can just cheat and leave everything in the 
default namespace since these tools are interim tools until other tools 
generate the XPath information.

I didn't realize that non-namespace vocabularies were not allowed.

Okay, next question ... probably to the SSC ... what are the UBL policies 
for choosing namespace URI strings for subcommittee projects?  Maybe I 
should ask this of the TC.

How about something like:

   urn:oasis:names:tc:ubl:sbsc:xpath
