So STP doesn't have a built-in feature for this, but I suppose a helper
function could be nice for this purpose.  Maybe something like this:

CL-USER> (defun make-element-in-context (qname context)
           (stp:make-element
            qname
            (stp:find-namespace (cxml::split-qname qname) context)))
MAKE-ELEMENT-IN-CONTEXT

CL-USER> (stp:make-element "test" "http://bar")
#.(CXML-STP:ELEMENT :LOCAL-NAME "test" :NAMESPACE-URI "http://bar")

CL-USER> (make-element-in-context "child" *)
#.(CXML-STP:ELEMENT :LOCAL-NAME "child" :NAMESPACE-URI "http://bar")
