It isn't C++-like namespaces and it isn't Java-like packages. So it
doesn't really matters what name will be used. It will confuse
newcomers from any language anyway.
I came to PHP from C++ and I find my self confused from time to time
even though I code in PHP for a few years now. There are already more
then one thing in named just the same as in C++ but implemented
differently. One more thing woun't change anything.
FWIW, I vote for
namespace.
BTW, if we are talking about the names already I have a question. Why
import? Why not use? AFAIK it's reserved and not used for anything
and IMHO it's better pair for namespace.
