IMO, you really don't want to do that. If there is more than one 
routine named "greet()", you must be specific. Having a 'default' 
version of greet() (presumably the one from the include w/o "as") 
which the compiler just assumes you mean if you forget a qualifier 
could be /really/ annoying.

was the above a typo then?

PS eg fr:f(fr:x(),y(),fr:z())  should flag the y() missing namespace,
obviously in real code that missing 'fr:' could be real hard to spot
and/or lead to a very subtle and very hard to reproduce bug.
