I would presume for ease of use - it's shorter to write and is more
immediately clear (to the non-wikipedian) what is meant.
I guess that the underlying idea is that Wikiprojects (and indeed any form
of collaboration that is more complex than what can be handled in an
individual article's talkpage) are such a fundamental part of the way we go
about building the encyclopedia that they deserve a namespace in their own
right. Is that it Stevevertigo? On the other hand, I presume that this would
entail the creation of a new namespace in the software but I'm not sure how
tricky that implementation would be both on the technical side or the
community side.
Is there an on-wiki essay or proposal that you can link to to give a more
detailed discussion of the idea?

I propose (again) a change to the

namespace of the form:
"Wikipedia:WikiProject [Name]" >> "Project:Name"
