Apparently the W3C Markup Validator enforces XML Namespaces rules,
http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-xml-names/
According to them, “No entity names, processing instruction targets, or 
notation names contain any colons.”

This is understandable, given the orientation towards validating HTML 
and publicly defined XML languages (MathML, SVG). But I cannot find any 
statement on the Namespaces issue at
http://validator.w3.org/about.html
