Thanks a lot Howard! Indeed, I should have know, since one week ago I
read (enjoying it a lot!) Herb's paper on ADL... ;) I should really
double check and read it again together with your message (now I'm
running out for a few hours, sorry) but I gather that Herb's
modifications would avoid these trickeries, right?

I'm not 100% up on Herb's ADL paper either. Herb was kind enough to walk me through it a couple of weeks ago, but I haven't fully internalized it yet. I do recall having some concerns about backward compatibility, but now I don't remember the details.

In the meantime, we just need to practice good hygiene with respect to identifiers, namespaces and ADL. It all pretty much works until you try to get too fancy. ;-)
