Should we add namespaces?

This sounds a little out there for Yuck and Eww, but I think having a namespace would be nice. Essentially you would have a couple of options. Either a (import "bar.yuck" as bar) or (this would be way better) (namespace bar). Then when you want to use a widget/window from a namespace you simply use bar::Window.

You can already name windows and widgets using ::, but this will just make the process a little easier.

The issue with using (import is that it doesn't actually achieve anything since no renaming happens if at least one file in the include tree doesnt use the new (import syntax

I don't think something like this would be bad. If the namespace had some effect on variable scoping then it would be really good for storing local values, seeing as we can't really scope a variable to only be defined within a window.

Also, how did you find out about widget renaming? I can't remember the documentation mentioning that at all.

There's no renaming but I tried to use :: and . In the name and it just worked.
