It all sounds sane to me.

It would allow Commons define MediaInfo without needing to change any existing pages, templates etc on Commons which refer to P123 and Q456 already

This is one of the more annoying points here, but also the point that makes me lean toward getting rid of the "" prefix assumption for local entities.
Having P123 and wikidata:P123 on commonswiki would be a right pain...

Though it also raises some other thoughts:

  • So when and if commons will be able to define properties on commonswiki, they will have to prefix them with common: or some other prefix. IMO this sucks a bit. But there is no reasonable way to get around this right now.
  • The code loading the P123 without a prefix on commons right now is in my head separate to the repo code that is going to do our federation, although maybe this is yet another point for bringing the 2 closer together.

Changing any prefixes of lack of prefixes in the future will be a massive migration and not something that we want to do, but if we pull in the fact that we already refer to entities from wikidata on commons then we are already at that stage.
