I'm not entirely sure I follow you here. Is this what you mean?

extern(C++) module nspace {
    int foo();
}

void main() {
    foo();        // Either this does not work, (#1)
    nspace.foo(); // or this does not work.     (#2)
}

If so, is that really bad? I'd say the better choice is to make #2 work, as then #1 can be made to work with a simple alias:

alias foo = nspace.foo;

If I'm far off into the fields of ignorance now, care to show me the way to a better understanding?

#2 should not compile. D currently does not have any notion of namespaces other than modules / aggregates and I am against introducing those just for the sake of interfacing with C++.
