This is the major flaw with that solution. Personally I just looked at
working code that had (:::) and (\) which is the second option I also
mentioned already long ago. And (:::) can be read very easy. The visual
difference to (::) is big enough. However it is too easy to either type
two or four. Thus the backslash (the only other conflict free) character
is probably the better option - even though no one has done something
like that. Btw, it pretty much suggests thatyou use the same structure
for your directories and files. Which you'd do inside __autoload() most
likely anyway.

Best regards,
 Marcus
