"wiki:wikiId" is a the namespace for wiki with id "wikiId".

It's not really that simple IMO. You will have to change the URL
format and find an alternative that can work along with the old format
to not break it. The thing is you could have an extension in any
namespace, the standard UI just give you wikis choice but it's not the
case for classloadersmanager/extensionmanager API. As for the user
case, I don't think installing an extension in a space would be so
weird compare to installing an extension in a wiki. It does not really
make much difference for Extension Manager.
