Once it's out of the article namespace, nothing can come along that is 
more deserving of the title "<prefix>:Main Page" than the Main Page 
itself. I really don't think we're in any danger, if having moved the 
Main Page into a project space, of things spiraling out of control and 
the Main Page forever being moved from namespace to namespace for years 
to come.

Things pop up in the "real world" that need new articles with new 
titles. Nothing pops up in the project spaces except what the community 
wants there, so something will have precedence over "<prefix>:Main Page" 
if and only if the community really wants it to have precedence.

Cheers,
