Indeed, which is why I am inclined to say "Put up, or shut up". Göran
has a simple understandable implementation that people could at least
try to see how it feels. Then there is Andreas' namespaces in Tweak,
which are very similar to Göran's IIUC, but are not hooked up to any
UI yet. Dan/Henrik had a complex implementation that people tried
hard to understand or even use, so it was abandoned (although the
#environment hooks are still tehre for further experiments). I don't
think I saw another concrete proposal in code form.
