Ant is namespace aware, it merely chooses not to ignore content in other
namespaces, as it assumes they are tasks declared into a different
namespace.

Consider this, then, my gift to you:
<presetdef name="description" uri="
http://www.dpawson.co.uk#ns" >
<echo level="debug" />
</presetdef>
you now get a description
<d:description>Main variable set</d:description>
which gets printed when you run
ant -debug
[description] Main variable set
