AFAIK, it's unfortunately not possible to use partial names in the behaviorExtensions section. Strangely enough it's only for the behaviorExtensions section. For example, you can do bindingElementExtensions without full assembly name. Just looks like whoever wrote that configuration section implementation didn't allow for partial name loading where as the others did. I haven't checked to see if this is remedied in .NET 4 yet.
