There are 'places' which are very new -- I haven't yet played with them. See http://www.mail-archive.com/d...@racket-lang.org/msg00580.html > 2.

Specifically, names are module not globally scoped (unless you go out of you way to get around this). So that should prevent the name collision issues you mentioned.
