Was this message target at me? If so, I didn&#39;t understand how const_set=
 could help implementing this feature. Would you mind in explaining what yo=

Feature #9064: Add support for packages, like in Java<br>

<br>
In Java, it&#39;s easy to define a package for a certain class:<br>
<br>
package com.company.MyClass<br>
<br>
We don&#39;t use that convention in Ruby but we have another way of packagi=
ng classes:<br>
<br>
module MyLibrary<br>
=A0 module InnerNamespace<br>
=A0 =A0 class MyClass<br>
=A0 =A0 end<br>
=A0 end<br>
end<br>
<br>
I&#39;d prefer to be able to use something like this instead meaning exactl=
y the same thing:<br>
<br>
package MyLibrary::InnerNamespace # or MyLibrary.InnerNamespace, I don&#39;=
t really care<br>
class MyClass<br>
end<br>
<br>
Could you please consider this idea?<br>
