Didn't you get my mail? OK, I'll put it in here:

---------------------------------------------------------
I already brought this up once: How difficult is it to introduce an
option to php.ini which has its standard setting in such a way that
every encountered namespace is automagically translated into "classic
prefixing" style?

Let's say: Mike doesn't want to use namespaces but he wants to use a
package from Jessie. Jessie uses namespaces. Mike has his PHP configured
to "auto-prefix-import" everything. So if he uses your file foo.php containg

  namespace JessieStuff{ class Foo { ... } }

in conjunction with this setting would enable him to

  require_once('foo.php');
  $x=new JessieStuff_Foo();

This enables people who don't like namespaces to disregard them. No
import, no ::: and all the fresh fun when name collisions occur. Of
course, their code wouldn't be easily usable by those using namespaces,
but that's their problem not ours.
---------------------------------------------------------

This simply means automating the "as" option for EVERYTHING inside
namespaces for people that hate them.
