The main PHP namespaces ideas come from Java packages and Java classes have to write these "use" statements in the same way. It's not the end of the world. I believe that well-designed frameworks won't require a lot of use statements in user-space code.
Given the overwhelming feedback that this is indeed a big issue, I would be more careful with saying this is a non issue for "well designed" frameworks. If someone could post some links to their namespace using code that is suffering from the current situation it would provide a good opportunity for all of us to review and comment (hopefully in a respectful manner .. after all these people are treading on new territory so its much easier to make witty comments than doing the initial hard work of trying to do something new). Especially in this sense I would recommend all people on this list to make sure they use language that encourages people from coming out of the shadows on this topic, rather than scaring them off.
