Sigil 0.2.0beta adds the name space indication "xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" not only to the < html > element, but also to all the < p > elements. Is this necessary for some reason? I have a book with several thousands of <p > elements, and this name space thing makes the ePub much larger then it should be IMHO.

It's been reported. And no, it's not necessary (even though webkit thinks it should), and no, it shouldn't be added. It's just the kind of thing the beta process is supposed to catch.

EDIT: Fixed in trunk.

Thanks. I looked almost everywhere here in the forum, but forgot to look in the obvious place
