In short:

I'm for option #1 - and I would have to disagree with "con 1" there -- 
we shouldn't give a damn about what people did with unreleased code.

As for the internal classes resolving, I am not too keen on slowing down 
internal classes access. Obviously, this is only going to be ab issue if 
you use namespaces though. The bad thing I find about it is that this 
resolving is done during runtime -- but I suppose that'd happen anyway 
because of autoload().

A bit on the reasoning against option #2: Option #2 introduces a new 
concept yet again. Namespaces are already a new concept, and trying to 
make it even more confusing wouldn't serve anybody.

Derick
