I actual names of the directives I don't really care about.  #region/#endreg,
#scope/#endscope, #module/#endmodule are all fine with me.  I don't personally
like #namespace/#endnamespace, but I could live with it.  What I want (and what
we need) is the more general mechanism allowing named scopes.  My proposal,
including import/export, would allow both the current model and the more general
model.
