This would be useful.  I end up doing a lot of work to extract namespaces from
full page names.  Every time I realize I'm going to need to do it, I feel a
deep sadness as parsing titles tends to be error prone.  Sadly, splitting on
":" is not a sufficient strategy.  I've actually written libraries to help
minimize the pain for others.  See
