Yes, thank you.

To me this is a decent solution, but problematic as it puts a lot of work on
the system administrator and gives the development team less flexibility
when writing code.  Developers will want to continue using include for speed
and flexibility.

I absolutely love this idea.  I think a proper implementation of namespaces
is the best route for PHP in the long term.  PHP can only benefit from
this... the only negative is the amount of time we have to wait to be able
to use it. =)
