Yeah you are right, I also thought it looked extremely ugly.

I have thought of a few things (since I am the combined/aggregated
files advocate) and I actually think that this approach (Having
multiple namespace per file like you mentionned) would work pretty
well. After taking a look at this problem from another point of view,
I realized that if we can manage to make the multiple namespace per
file as you mentionned earlier then it would be rather trivial.

I like the implementation you suggested earlier, you got +1 from me ;-)



More question, just like this,

when you do:

<?php

namespace A;
require 'somefile.php';
class AX{}

namespace B;
class BX{ }

?>

is somefile.php also included in the B namespace since you cannot
include it in global scope.



Next step ? Renaming to packages ? :P (No please dont anyone it's just a joke)
