We have two options here: 1) Do not allow constants in namespaces, just stick to functions and classes. 2) Forget about this inconsistency. I understand your point of view, but it seems crazy to me to use "\", an operator that makes absolutely no sense at all and will be confusing for most users, just because of _one_ isolated case such as this. I personally choose option 2, and I think the many users who are clamoring for namespaces would agree also.
From the users point of view I agree completely with option 2) here. sincerly, - Markus
