Rick,
Perhaps I missed something but I fail to see why your xslt example
shows that prefixes are required.

That is true, but not because it is a different prefix, but because it
is a different namespace.
The expanded form is not
<(http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform)value-of select="xxx"/>
that you suggest but rather
<(http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/TransformAlias)value-of select="xxx"/>
which is (to the namespace processor parsing the stylesheet) just some
unknown namespace unrelated to XSLT which is why it is a literal result
element not an xsl instruction.
The `magic' aliasing comes later, as result elements in that namespace
are switched to the XSLT namespace as the result tree is written out.
