We could try but I think there might be a clash in
- what XML Namespaces spec allows (including Unicode issues)
- backwards compatibility with N3, Turtle especially around '.'s and integer
decimals

I did summarize some of this in the Turtle doc in section 10 for SPARQL

http://www.w3.org/TeamSubmission/2008/SUBM-turtle-20080114/#sec-diff-sparql

but I haven't looked at what the latest RDFa CURIES (is that the name)
allows
