Namespaces would indeed be very helpful - for two reasons:

1)  it would allow for a better way of accessing Declares.  A whole bunch of
declares could be put inside a given namespace,m removing the need to have
to keep declaring the same API functions inside every RB method that calls
it

2)  it would facilitate much better support for incorporating 3rd party code
into projects - whether RB based through DLL declares or plugins.

My idea for namespaces would be to implement them simply as a special type
of RB project folder.  Any RB class, module,interface or window  placed
inside such a folder would then be accessed by using the namespace name as a
dot prefix.
