...the old CPAN-ish format will stay.

Shorter namespaces would be a very good thing (especially for people new to Perl), but as long as we have to deal with stuff like a shared Perl interpreter (mod_perl...) the probability of a namespace clash is too big.

Also interesting, about 80% of the people i asked prefer the old format, but most didn't know why. :)
