[Lazarus] OT: Namespaces?

there's a good ways to handle this: rename your units (adding my
prefixed, like my_* to unit name). Usually 3d party units (usually
libraries) do this, prefixing their names.

after all, aliasing is dangerous, because, you might cause the worser
name conflict:

let's say you've bound some unit with alias name

program
users
  SomeUnit as "NewUnit";

but some 3d party unit uses different unit, that actually matches the
allias name:
uses
   NewUnit;

how should compiler behave in this way? This case is worse, because
you'll have to study other lib for units name usage.
