Namespace is not output

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Create a Kml element and invoke SerializePretty() on it

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

You should see:

<kml xmlns="http://www.opengis.net/kml/2.2">

You actually get:

<kml>

The enum specifies the namespace in the constructor, it just never gets
used for some reason. Obviously, this is a minor issue, and can be solved
but adding your own Attributes set, but it seems odd not to use the xmlns
member already present to generate a useful namespace.

The kmldom parse/serialize don't do namespaces.
Use kmlengine::KmlFile::SerializeToString()

I'm coding in Python and was wondering if you had some example code to output 
the kml 
tag with the appropriate namespaces? Or just in general, it would be really 
helpful if 
you could post some code on how to use the Attributes set.

Thank you so much!

Use kmlengine.KmlFile as in this unit test:
