And there are no problems with those on foreign keyboards?
I recall seeing a number of 'complaints' about some of the separator 
characters that are difficult to access on foreign language keyboards. Has 
anybody tabulated that so that the extent of that problem is understood?

Just an aside, and while I might put changing the separator used above adding 
'use namespace', from a documentation and review of code where multiple files 
are involved, going with both ( keeping finger of shift key which it goes to 
automatically ;) ) makes perfect sense to me.

But do I still understand that there is an alternative method that was not 
part of this last round of voting? And needs to be reviewed in light of the 
current 'consensus' ?
( putting quotes around a word is automatic to me as well - just means that 
the word may not be entirely appropriate but gives the right idea )
