If this is a problem, I guess the most obvious alternatives are to:
1. Get rid of namespace scopes. Require workarounds in the case of
conflicting definitions in different namespaces in the same file. (Eg.
use a mixin template.) I'd presume this would not happen often.
2. Give the global C++ namespace a distinctive name and put all other
C++ namespaces below it. This way fully qualified name lookup will be
reliable.
3. Use the C++ namespace for mangling, but not lookup. C++ symbols will
belong in the module they are imported into, and be treated exactly the
same as a D symbol, e.g.
module a;
extern(C++, std) ..string..
module b;
extern(C++, std) ..string..
module c;
import a;
import b;
void main() { .. string .. } // error could be a.string or b.string
void main() { .. a.string .. } // resolved
Sorry, #1 is the same suggestion :)
