Where do you see having these similar key prefixes cause problems? We never need to join this table against searchindex I would think...

If it could cause problems, we ought to change the prefix, but not at the cost of the table name being good. site_prefix implies it contains prefixes, while it does not (the identifiers/keys might be used as one obviously, but this does not make them prefixes).
