Hi,
I've been wanting $topic for a while, and having just stumbled into the
whole namespace thing by accident, I figured I'd give it a go, most if
the hard parts seem to have already been done.
It reserves and disallows imports on any "MODULE_${name}" namespace,
while it implicitly adds the same namespace to every module.
This allows exports targeted at specific modules and no others -- one
random example included. I've hated the various kvm exports we've had
for a while, and strictly limiting them to the kvm module helps
alleviate some abuse potential.
