So upon detachment, an xml:base="{baseURI}" is written on the detached element? This would make the baseURI explicit and leave less room for astonishment.

No, on detachment setActualBaseURI (a non-public method) would be called to set the node's actual base URI. xml:base attributes are only added if the user explicitly requests them. Doing otherwise would cause noticeable problems for XSLT and other pre-xml:base specs.
