The syntax of @prefix

Hello!

I've been reading up the latest developments in RDFa 1.1 and the depreciation of @xmlns in favor of @prefix caught my eye. Specifically the syntax which is supposed to be:

"a white space separated list of prefix-name URI pairs of the form: NCName ':' ' '+ xs:anyURI"

I find the notion of a white space separated list of values containing white space quite curious. Any insights?
