Yes, please don't use python namespaces. It's a cool feature, as you say, but the setuptools implementation available for Python 2 has some buggy edge cases that we hit on a regular basis before moving back to regular packages. It might be something we could look into again when we're running only on Python 3, since at that point the feature is built into the language.
