I mostly fail to see the need for namespaces, it feels like overdesign 
without any clear advantage, since C++ does not provide many features in 
the user of namespaces.
And if the advantage is Power::Manager instead of PowerManager and 
Power::Battery::isFilled() instead of PowertypeBattery::isFilled(), well; 
its too similar to actually accept disadvantages in my experience.

I would very much favour having at max one namespace; the 'solid' one, but 
IIRC kdelibs does not do namespaces at all (though I may have missed a 
later decision), does it?
