    /** serializes an object (e.g. a DOM tree) that represents an XML document
        by generating SAX events.

        @param  handler
            the SAX event handler that should receive the generated events
        @param  namespaces
            a list of namespace declarations that will be added to the root
            element node of the XML document
            <p>
            This is necessary mostly because the DOM implementation does
            not permit attaching namespaces declarations directly to nodes,
            which may lead to duplicate namespace declarations on export,
            and thus larger documents.
            Note that the first part of each tuple is the prefix,
            e.g. "office", and the second is the full namespace URI.
