Ultimately I think people will use prefixes whether RDFa provides such
a facility or not. If prefixes were taken out of RDFa (which they
should not be BTW as it would cause massive backwards incompatibility -
but deprecating them might be a possibility) then people would end up
using things like this in server-side code:
	<?php
	  $FOAF = 'http://xmlns.com/foaf/0.1/';
	  // ...
	  echo "<span property=\"${FOAF}name\">${name}</span>\n";
	?>
People are going to want to abbreviate URIs somehow.
