Well, I need some time to read your post more carefully - but my initial
reaction is that I don't really think it will work in practice. It is
simply too "fine granular". IMHO one of the whole points in talking
about packages is the fact that we indeed try to group things together
in bigger more understandable chunks.

It seems to me that simply saying class == package doesn't solve
anything.

But again, I need to read it more carefully.
