right.
and imitate that namespace for libraries.

but what about objects that include "/"
(it is not the most uncommon character i can think of)
(but of course the only one that stays compatible with directories)

me too.
but still i can't remember what the "*-help.pd patch problems" are.
i like it, that there are both help-*.pd and *-help.pd
for instance with Gem i bundle all the help-patches in another directory 
(there are really a lot of them) and i like it that they are just 
"help-Gem/gemwin.pd" instead of "Gem/gemwin-help.pd" (this made it very 
easy to port from the pre-0.37 aera: just renaming a single directory 
instead of all objects.)
