This line declares a struct. All declarations are in the enclosing
namespace by definition.

The others are references, which aren't pinned to the enclosing
namespace (or there would be far too many xproto:Foo everywhere).

The oldest example of namespaces in xcb is glx.xml, which declares
 <xidtype name="WINDOW" />
(note the lack of a namespace in the declaration) and then uses
glx:WINDOW to reference it for the remainder of the file, or
xproto:WINDOW to reference the core WINDOW type.
