It was exactly this issue which made expressing RDF in JSON was so troublesome for a long time; you either ended up being very ambiguous and risking clashes or misinterpretation, or you were too verbose and nobody wanted to work with the data. JSON-LD was created to try to bridge that gap, and (though I wasn't involved in it at all) I think it manages to do that quite neatly. Maybe there's a way, even if one doesn't actually use JSON-LD (which might be worth exploring anyway, of course), that its approach could be borrowed? i.e., specify that the JSON expression of ODRL references a 'context' document (published on w3.org alongside the other vocabs) which contains the necessary information to map the short-and-friendly names to the fully-qualified ones?
