I don't think so, but I'm really not sure.  My recollection is that an
early version of the patch did this, but I was convinced to remove the
namespace bit of it.  I'm not sure why any more.

I've been hunting around for the original patch that supported
namespaces.  (It won't appear in any mailing lists external to Red
Hat.) I've found one that predates the one that finally got committed,
but I can't see why one of these would support namespaces and the
other not.

I guess the answer is, "Try it and let me know..."
