If we are indeed leaning towards "metadata element sets" 
as opposed to "element vocabularies", how about calling 
this one "REUSE-ELEMENTS"?  

I think of RDF schemas as files containing RDF serializations,
and I do not think the point here is that _files_ are
being reused.  Rather, it is properties and classes that
are being reused.  If we intend the "elements" in "metadata
element sets" to refer to properties and classes, then we
can use it in the same sense here.
