map ; :
is not mapping ':' to anything; it is mapping something to ':'. I
don't think there is any problem with mapping something to ':', as
your mapping does, except for the loss of the ';' functionality.
On the other hand, mapping ':' to something is likely to cause
problems. You might have a plugin with a mapping defined without
"nore" that includes ':' in the rhs. That ':' would then be
replaced by the rhs of your ':' mapping, with odd results.
