I think that Text is maybe a bad example as it might be best to move it to the Efl.Gfx namespace. In general I think our Efl top namespace is to crowded and would be better cleaned up. I am guessing this would solve many problem for python, no ? In general, do you have rules for naming and namespaces that you would like us enforcing ? If we had, we could enforce them in eolian.
