### Description
I was reminded today that
class_alias() doesn't work with internal classes.
I have a use case where a class can be defined either by userland or by an optional extension, and
I'd ideally need to alias it. Right now, I have to create a proxy class instead of an alias,
and proxy classes are tedious to write+maintain.
Could this limitation be removed?
