Francis, we should still do the Elliott suggestion even if dot, right? The dot
would be for 'external' tools or a useful facility in shell but we want
namespaces to be first class in API too.

The approach I proposed earlier would avoid having to do all the api stuff as
part of the first namespace checkin as well as make use of '.' as a delimeter.
The suprises are as I mentioned. We can incrementally add the apis.
Sounds like we are going with overloading all the existing apis to take a
namespace parameter. If so what would be the behavior when using the old api?
Will it always reference default namespace or will we support fully qualified
table names?
For some reason I'm not getting any jira or RB emails. Will take a look.
