If you do so, how will you (and most important : how will your server) make any difference between the *article* Peter or the main namespace and the *userpage* User:Peter of the User namespace ? ;-)

e.g.  if you remove "User:" in http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Cat, you will find http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cat which is the wikipedia's article about Cat and has nothing to do with the User:Cat (I don't know him but welcome on the mailing list)

(just wondering)
