Ewwwww! That's awful. If the grammar really allows that then I
certainly hope the grammar will be changed to require whitespace between
tokens. Note that a PrefixedName is not required to have a local name
part, and I often take advantage of this fact in SPARQL as a way of
defining a short name for a single long URI

so any of the following would be legal statements given suitable prefix
definitions:
:me foaf: knows:her .
:me foaf:know s:her .
:me foaf:knows :her .
