Not sure I understood you, but, if you want something like:
<table>
	<tr>
		<th>firstname</th>
		<th>lastname</th>
	</tr>
	<tr>
		<td>Schlabach</td>
		<td>Torsten</td>
	</tr>
</table>

You can have it with both XML formats.

It boils down to using "local-name()" instead of "@name" in the relevant 
XSLT, like:
<xsl:template match="rowset">
	<table>
		<xsl:apply-templates select="*"/>
	</table>
</xsl:template>		
	
<xsl:template match="row">
	<xsl:if test="position()=1">
		<tr>
			<xsl:for-each select="*">
  			 <th><xsl:value-of select="local-name()"/></th>
			</xsl:for-each>	
		</tr>
	</xsl:if>
	<tr>
		<xsl:for-each select="*">
			<td><xsl:value-of select="."/></td>
		</xsl:for-each>
	</tr>
</xsl:template>

On the other hand, the format you proposed is cleaner indeed.
