Ok, I was wondering to myself, do you guys think it would be possible
to do something like having an endnamespaces; keyword that would put
an end to the namespace definition?

For instance:

<?php

namespace A;
class AX{}
class AY{}

namespace B;
class BX{}

endnamespaces;

class BAX{}
class Extern {}

?>

I am trying to find a way to put a delimiter to the namespaces definitions..

I'm ready and open for a good and constructive discussion :) No more hate.
