The mapping works if HTTP URLs are used for namespaces (if you're prepared to live with the ambiguity problem that Patrick pointed out, and which Dan is not concerned about). However, it will not work in general for other URI schemes. For example, in a recent post I showed that concatenation doesn't work if namespaces are given urn:publicid: URIs that represent SGML "formal public identifiers". This is because these must end with a language identifier, e.g. "EN". - Stephen
