    We can use xsd: as a canonical prefix, but in no way will it be 
    "standard".  XML Namespaces allows any prefix -- even multiple prefixes per 
    document -- to stand for the same namespace URI.  It's the URI that is 
    important.
    
    That said, xsd: is canonically used in most specs/schemas that I know (at 
    least, the ones that don't use defaulting), so I prefer it as the prefix.
