Hi all,

Expanding on the previous thread about extended operators. So I like the
idea of not rolling out a new interface and just use functions like we have,
basically making extended operators syntactic sugar for functions. The only
potential roadblock is that function names are not namespace qualified and
extended operator names are. So two potential options.

1. Update the api of FunctionName to make getName() a Name rather than just
a String.
2. Just accept the limitation of non namespace qualified extended operator
names... essentially ignoring the namespace.

Thoughts? I sort of lean toward 2 since I think it is simpler and doesn't
involve any api changes. And given that today function names aren't
qualified i imagine its an ok limitation to impose.
