Clojure introduced namespace map syntax in Clojure 1.9. The Clojure
edn reader was also updated to support the non-autoresolved parts of
namespace map syntax
The edn spec should be updated to a new version that includes the
namespace map syntax such as #:foo{:bar 1} (syntax alternative for
{:foo/bar 1}).
So it's pretty clear that the intention is for edn spec to support namespaced maps (the reference implementation in Clojure already does!).
parseclj already added support for namespaced maps in 2018 (in commit b40670a56147214f0486763529897cb688a09692).
As Alex Miller said in https://github.com/edn-format/edn/issues/78
So it's pretty clear that the intention is for edn spec to support namespaced maps (the reference implementation in Clojure already does!).
In addition to the use case mentioned in issue #16, not supporting this seems to cause trouble in CIDER when integrating with shadow-cljs (https://github.com/clojure-emacs/cider/issues/3437
