PHP\ModuleOrFeature\Abc was the style listed in the PHP Namespace Policy 
RFC presented by Larry and I, which was voted down, perhaps due to 
specific elements of the RFC, or perhaps due to a dislike of namespaces 
in general.

If you believe that PHP\ModuleOrFeature\Abc is a sensible approach to 
take, then I would implore you to pick up the mantle and try and push 
everyone towards agreement, lest this keep coming up again, and again.

Fortunately, your words carry great weight, and you're likely to be one 
of the few people who could succeed where so many others of us have 
tried and failed.
