I take that back: as far as I understand the paper, the (SXML-side) shortcuts are global to the document, whereas the (XML-side) abbreviations are subtree- scoped (i.e. for the whole subtree of the element where the declaration is attached. I don't know ATM whether shadowing is allowed, but I'll look that up). So there *is* a subtle difference between "user-ns-shortcut" (the one you were manipulating with #:namespaces) and the XML "namespace abbreviation" (the official jargon is "namespace prefix").
