No need to look for patches. Look for commit history instead. Ondrej
now has commit rights and fixed many things in codetools related to
dotted namespace.

It was discussed in mailing list :

I understood it was not ready. You added sentences like "Just remove
the KDE check and it should be good to go."
Then Zeljko promised to implement it in Lazarus but apparently he was busy.

So, could you please provide a patch that fully works in your tests.
Preferably open a bug report for it. Tracking the potential problems
becomes easier then.
I can apply it then but I cannot promise to include it in Lazarus 1.6.
This is a change that can cause regressions and must be tested well.
