I don't see why this should break interoperability. The server just has 
to send the known prefixes and namespace declarations to the clients 
(which is perfectly well formed XML) and handle incoming XML with 
correct namespace processing.

The only thing will be that this will consume more memory per user on 
the server because it has to store all the namespace definitions the 
client has send.

And BTW: I hate it too, that jabberd doesn't handle the namespaces as it 
should.
