Your first example was perfectly fine, itemprop does allow multiple
properties from multiple namespaces,
http://www.w3.org/TR/microdata/#names:-the-itemprop-attribute.

The definition you have pasted above with the restriction on the single
vocabulary is for the *itemtype* attribute. Schema.org offers a work around
for that via the additionalType property: "An additional type for the item,
typically used for adding more specific types from external vocabularies in
microdata syntax. This is a relationship between something and a class that
the thing is in. In RDFa syntax, it is better to use the native RDFa syntax
- the 'typeof' attribute - for multiple types. Schema.org tools may have
only weaker understanding of extra types, in particular those defined
externally." - you can see it on all schema.org type pages, e.g.
http://schema.org/Person
