I think that Leigh was pointing out that it pretty much requires you to
have two prefixes for the same URI (especially the XSLT URI) which is
not allowed by Joe English's proposal. If prefixes were taken out of the
mix entirely then the problem would go away. As you point out that is
really a syntactic, not semantic, change.
