 * The namespacing system becomes more consistent. It does no longer belong to the class (or the interface) to define its full qualifying name. It belongs to the element that requires it to assign its final position in the namespace.
-* Now that a namespace points to a clear and unique location, importing a namespace is unambiguous, and aliases are no longer needed:
-<code php>
-use Foo1::Foo2::*; // or spl_use (?)
-use Foo3;
-(..)
-$a = MyClass();
-</code>
-The parser will look up in its autoloaded classes for a ''Foo1::Foo2::MyClass'', for a ''Foo3::MyClass'' and then for a ''::MyClass'' (global namespace).
-If only one MyClass on the three is found, it is used.
-If two or the three MyClass are found, a fatal error is raised (other scenario: the first ''MyClass'' found is taken, regardless of the rest).
 * It becomes possible to namespace old existing code without even modifying it. No need to add a ''namespace'' at the beginning of every file.
