Or rather, to be honest, I hadn't thought it through at the point where I sent this proposal, but now have been thinking and discussing it with others on IRC. I should not have used the word "hide" and have now changed the email subject line. The key thing was we needed to move them out of the strong compatibility rules, and using the existing "__" namespace is sufficient for that.
