Have you seen PEAR?  That's all they use (for better or worse).  The PHP 
DEV's seem to not look at namespaces as a big issue.  In fact, I believe 
the phrase that rings in my head is "syntactic sugar".

Anyway, the good thing about doing it this way is when/if namespace 
support is implemented, you will only have to do search/replace.

FWIW, there's been a lot of recent discussion about this on php-dev. 
Sounds like they maybe getting more serious about it because they are 
arguing about what to use as the separator (e.g. '.' versus ':::', etc).
