This is indeed elegant - however, it "hides" the classes from tools,  
like, if you want to find references to "Kernel Array".

Well, in Göran's version there simply is a global named  
#Kernel::Array which I find quite elegant too (if you like TSTTCPW).  
It's even hardly a "namespace" so much as it is a formalization of  
prefixes.
