It sounds like you may be starting to wander towards territory that
would be more appropriate to the developers list if you're going to be
working on the code.

One obvious reason that you wouldn't want every Namespace included as
a possible candidate is that the namespace/containment hierarchy is
just that, a hierarchy, and can't contain cycles.  If a package A
contains subpackages B & C, none of A, B, or C should be included as
candidates.

When you say that "sometimes" it's a problem, without providing a
specific example that fails to work, you don't give people very much
information to help you with.  It would be much better if, as Bob
suggested on March 26, you created a bug report with an example that
doesn't work the way you expect, including a description of what you
expect to happen and what actually happens instead.
