Hello Marcus, hello Ilia,

such a big problem with classes now? All new php/pecl classes will
follow
one of the following rules:
- Prefix with the extension name
- Postfix with "Iterator"
- Postfix with "Exception"
that seems the same amount of protection as prefix functions with
extension
name plus underscore. I don't see any problem since the above rule
is in
place.
This would mean classes should be prefixed by extension name...
That is the common case, yes. In fact the date extension's classes
follow this convention to the letter.
DateTime + DateTimeZone (Date is the extension name).
However, for native classes there maybe exceptions to simplify usage,
when a need for such exceptions arise this will be discussed on this
list.
