For me, dealing with PHP <-> PECL moves is an important part of adopting
namespaces in php-src, and I don't think the current proposal addresses
this issue sufficiently. (One way to address it would be to drop the PHP\
prefix, and use unvendored namespace names for php-src.)
There is another option that we reserve \Ext as well (not \PHP\Ext)
\PHP stays for engine level classes (core, collections etc)
\PHP\Annotations\JIT
\PHP\Tokenizer\Token
...
\Ext gets used for extensions, including bundled extensions. Anyone with
good standing can request an \Ext (or could use one without requesting
it, but it wouldn't be a BC break if an officially approved extension
took its name).
\Ext\Mysqli\Connection
\Ext\Mysqli\Result
\Ext\Gd\Image
\Ext\Curl\Handle
...
This would also solve the long-problem of an ever-increasing number of
classes and symbols placed into the root namespace.
