On an icelandic keyboard "\" is AltGr + (key right of 0 in the top
row), just an fyi if you guys wanted to know.
For my two cents. "\" looks like its not supposed to be there.
Is there no other combination of two simbols that would work? Like >>
or +> or ** or .. or something in that fashion ?

The "german keyboard" issue isn't really one. {}[] are in the same "class"
of
characters (alt-Gr + number-row). So, as a programmer, you either have to
live with that anyway because there's no avoiding {}[], or you switch to
the
us layout while programming (which quite a few people do).
Also useful to know :)

Well, I'd usually parse \ as either escape, or, coming from Perl, a
reference. But nothing tells me it's even related to namespaces. If I
had to choose, I'd say either use ::: to make sure I'm talking about the
global func, or...and I don't know if this even makes sense, but don't
allow registering functions in standard/ as function names (eg. function
strlen in a namespace). But that doesn't really work since those
functions change often.
Consistency in symbols is pretty important from my point of view, which
is why saying -> for static things is confusing, and using \ to mean
"outside namespacing" is weird too. ::: is already used for namespacing,
so it'd make sense.
As info, in a Spanish keyboard it's the same, Alt Gr+{the key to the
left of the 1}.
