Not so. You can control exactly which namespace nodes appear in the
output. As far as can be seen all processors will use the prefixes
specified in those namespace nodes (rather than inventing new prefixes
and then adding additional namespace declarations for those prefixes)
so, in practice, you have exact control over the namespace prefixes used.

I've been using this quite a lot recently for IE client side transforms.
IE doesn't believe in XHTML so firstly you have to make sure all the
html elements get stuffed out without prefix, then if you want to use
the microsoft "behavio(u)rs" extensions you have to use a MS-specific PI
in the output binding the behaviour activex component to a _prefix_
so you have to ensure that the xml elements are output using the prefix
youve specified. Been playing with xhtml+mathml, in case you hadn't
already guessed...
