Why not have namespaces to reflect the directory

Well, maybe better than what we have now, but having classes of the same
name only distinguished by namespace is still a pain maintanance wise.
No decent searching e.g.
I am not sure I understand why it is a pain but OK I will do the change
one last time. I'd like nevertheless to point out that I like very much
this directory+namespace separation. It's maybe because I am now used to
it but for me, there is no room for confusion and it is clean.
So this is my last proposal and this is non negotiable:
in src/: lyx
in src/frontends/: lyx::frontend::
Gui : virtual interface for all Gui operation
View: virtual interface for Views
WorkArea: virtual interface for WorkAreas
Clipboard: virtual interface for clipboard operation
GuiCursor: this one is special because it does not need a frontend
specialisation.
in src/frontends/[qt3,qt4,gtk,xforms]/: in the respective namespace we
have lyx::frontend::[qt3,qt4,gtk,xforms]::
TheGui, GuiView, GuiWorkArea, GuiClipboard,
I will also change cursor() to guiCursor() to please JMarc.
Comments?
