The problem has been expirenced many times. I think your just looking
at the one piece of it. The whole issue includes the practice of core
extensions and that's come up a good a lot. If extensions never occured
then it would be easy enough to ecapsulate libraries at load time w/o
issue. But with extensions, not even being cooperative with regards to
class/namspaces can't completely avoid the problems. Hopefully true
namespaces will arrive soon and provide the proper solution.
