Well, they wouldn't *have* to do that.  They could always go ahead and 
re-include the files with their own namespace qualifiers if needed, but 
it would certainly be a huge convenience, because you could take Irv's 
idea of a wrapper that includes the files into namespaces, and not have 
to retype, etc.  Plus, the namespacing would likely be more consistent 
from app to app.

-- gtk_wrapper.e
include button.e as button
include textbox.e as text
-- ...etc

--my_app.exu
include gtk_wrapper.e as gtk

gtk:button:create()
gtk:text:set_text( "Hello World" )
