the new namespace separator

So it seems we're settling for '\' now. Any opinions on why they like or don't like this? There are big words being used in the debate on the internals list. I don't think this is good for PHP.

It's a silly idea. \ is both the escape character and the Windows directory separator (although you should really be using a constant for that..).
