The word "namespace" is used in a general sense all the time. The phrase "domain name" is used all the time. I don't remember hearing anybody use the phrase "domain name space" ever, never mind recently, so I wonder whether it is a term that is really in common usage. That's what I meant by "has real currency". >> or that there's a useful distinction between that and "domain names”. > > The distinction is that names resolvable via the DNS is a subset of all > possible names within the domain namespace. I can see how it could mean that, it we decided to define it to mean something.
