like this would make it easier for a new developer to know what's what...
Wouldn't this be quite a lot of work?

I'm not at all familiar with the code... is the majority of the classes in
the lyx namespace?

I'd probably not notice that the lyx namespace is assumed as default when
there's nothing in the name that indicates this. I wouldn't mind having
something like 'lyx_' prepended to indicate the namespace.
