I don't understand what are you going to demonstrate with this example.
Did you try to run it?
It produces error as expected.
DOMDocument() in your example is a user-space class that is not related
to internal ext/dom class. If you like to use internal class that is
overriden in namespace you can use ::DomDocument instead.
The "use DomDocument as test;" is useless from my point of view.
You always may override internal classes in namespaces.
Thanks. Dmitry.

However, in the global scope (no namespace) it would fail. This is a

No, use should not allow this. Take the following example:
<?php
namespace blah;
use DomDocument as test;
class DOMDocument { }
$dom = new DOMDocument; //
$dom->loadXML('<books><book><title>blah</title></book></books>');
$s = simplexml_import_dom($dom);
echo $s->book[0]->title; // blah
?>
Besides this being a *big* WTF factor (why is my internal class
suddendly doing something else?) simplexml will horrible fail in this
case.
