Again, multiple representations, one of the reasons XSLT solves a 
lot of problems of portability if not interoperability.  Mapping 
does not solve problems of semantic inconsistency.  It hides it 
until something critical fails.  Humans are great onsite problem 
solvers.

Terseness aside, there is something to be said for human readability, and
problems with prefixes aside, people are drawn to qnames because they are
easy to read, especially if you use a well-known prefix.
