At some point, I do foresee adding a generic NodeList class that might be able to be used for this purpose.

I don't understand: If you're thinking about replacing Attributes and Namespaces by NodeList in the future, it makes no sense to remove them and the corresponding methods in Element to add them later.
Unless you plan a 1.0 release without NodeList and wish to avoid letting methods that will suffer incompatible changes in the next releases.
