Because the 'package' idea does not exist in the compiler.
It is an informal concept. The formal concept are... namespaces.
Yep, that's exactly why it's directory based. Due to a practice of
separating packages into a stand alone directory.
It's an idea to resolve the issue by using configuration rather than by
changing the (existing/old) source code.
I fail to see how this will solve the problem that you want to use 2 units
with the same name at the same time, as for the OP.
Or is it planned to identify a namespace by it's physical location?
(through another configuration setting?)
Not that I am aware of.
