Right, so this is basically a question of whether the following
template is legal or not:

<div tal:replace="string:hello world!" />

In ZPT it would be, because it automatically assumes this namespace declaration:

 xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"
 xmlns:tal="http://xml.zope. org/namespaces/tal"
 xmlns:metal="http://xml.zope.org/namespaces/metal" .

z3c.pt otoh, does not make such an assumption.
