Provide namespace collision errors

[pgilad]

This is an initial implementation for handling cases of namespace collisions when assigning properties/methods to this.

Lets go over this, and if the implementation is correct, I'll implement it in other areas in this module, as well as update readme & add additional tests.

• Create a safeSet method
• Resolves Namespace collision warnings #96

looks OK. safeSet may belong ampersand-state?, while we simply use that interface here.

[pgilad]

I fear that safeSet may be misleading, since ampersand (and backbone) use set to describe assigning of model (or properties) values. That set can also be nested, where as this is just a simple assignment to the instance::this of a view.

Perhaps we can choose a more descriptive name? safeAssign ? instanceSet ?

Any progress on this?

hey @pgilad @kamilogorek , may I release 8.x now? I think this feature is OK to roll in later as a minor. 8.x release is gating a form view issue closure and a select view issue closure.

[pgilad]

Yeah I agree. This is far from ready plus it should probably go into ampersand-state.
I removed the 8.0.0 milestone from this.

[cdaringe]

cool, thx for the quick response. i will release momentarily

[pgilad]

Hey, let's revive this. Should I add this feature to ampersand-state as _safeSet ? Then it can be used in ampersand-view as well.
