I was trying to explain how it is, and justify it, even though I
neither designed nor wrote it

Technically, I suspect it would be rather trivial, but has not been
done for fear of the problems it might cause.

I would certainly have no concern over permitting eg:

include file.e as ""

to indicate that is the one you should use automatically when no
namespace is specified (though it would still have to complain if the
global was included more than once as "", or if it was included
somewhere with no 'as' clause).
