Hi polymer devs,

I've recently been involved in porting the trace-viewer[1] project bundled 
with Google Chrome to use Polymer.

Given the size of the project, and the fact that it's mostly just one big 
page, we've run into the need to use namespaces for our modules. In order 
to avoid conflicts we've attempted to implement the rule that each 
constructor for a polymer element should have a name like:

/path/to/file + ElementConstructor => PathToFileElementConstructor

Unfortunately, this quickly gets out of hand and has a major readability 
impact in the code. An example is a polymer element defined in the file 
/tracing/analysis/analysis-view.html. This ends up being 
TracingAnalysisAnalysisView. What would be really useful is to be able to 
export the constructor of the element within a namespace, and not have it 
stuck to the window object.

I'm looking for something along the lines of:
<polymer-element name="foo-element" constructor="FooElement" namespace=
"foo.space">
<style>
/* css */
</style>
<template>
<!-- More HTML -->
</template>

<script>
  Polymer({
    ready: function(){
      this.barProperty = [];
    }
  });
</script>
</polymer-element>

/* some other file */
<link rel="import" href="foo/space/foo_element.html">

<script>
var fooElement = new foo.space.FooElement();
</script>


I've read the available documentation on this, but I could not find an 
appropriate way to actually solve this issue. Is there any trick available 
to solve this?

Regards,
Vicențiu Ciorbaru
