I still can't understand why you need ReflectionNamespace. Namespaces
are just strings. If you have class name \Foo\bar\Baz, \Foo is
namespace, \Foo\bar is namespace, and both can be created by splitting
class name. For me, it's like asking for runtime support for #define in
C - I don't even understand how such thing can be working. Can you
explain what you mean here?
