You are right in both cases. I was suggesting this simply as an optional
enhancement for form inputs (as a parameter: don't show, or show in case of
'value from namespaces', prefix namespace). Of course, users should be aware of
the risks in the second case and this should be included in documentation.

I haven't check the code to see how difficult this could be.
