Right.  I'd originally had the xmlns tag in every element that used it, but I 
ended up moving it to the SVG tag like your example below.

Maybe I'm misunderstanding you, but you should be able to put the xmlns item
in the root svg tag and use the appropriate prefix anywhere in the document.
For example,

<svg width="1040" height="1090"
     xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg";
     xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink";
     xmlns:mine="http://www.anomaly.org/my_namespace";>

   <mine:specialtag>Does something</mine>
   <rect x="10" y="10" width="100" height="50"
         mine:property="a special property"/>
</svg>
