Wouldn't this break existing pre-RDFa uses of CURIE-like tokens?

Uses of "dc:blah" with no explicit prefix mapping are not uncommon. (Admittedly more in m...@name than @rel.) I'd say they're almost certainly more common than the full-URIs-in-rel that this solution is designed to work around.

eRDF pages will often also contain rel values with colons in. eRDF does map prefixes to URIs, but not via xmlns:foo, instead using an RFC2731-style <link> element.

In both of those cases, you'll end up with incorrect triples that use bogus URL schemes.
