I thought selector namespaces were going to be for methods? Anyway, I  
still don't see the "problem" with modules as namespaces. Asking how  
to solve the problem of people putting objects in the same namespace  
with the same identifier seems akin to trying to "solve" the problem  
of how to stop x / 0 from being an error.
