Check out the binder API. You could maintain DOM and unmarshalled
objects in parallel and refer to DOM for things that are not mapped -
like namespace declarations, comments, processing instructions etc.
Another ide would be to put a SAX filter between XML and JAXB
unmarshaller and gather NS declarations there.
Bye.
