I would recommend sticking with namespaced keywords to avoid clashes with var metadata keys.
Remember qualified keywords respect namespace aliasing and ::keyword is qualified in the current namespace. These can help making the code more readable. You could store keywords in vars if namespaced keywords really bothered you.
