When you create a new user, do all those path specifiers for the
existing users magically update themselves? Seems like maintenance
would be a pain.
Fernando's "any" idea is probably a cleaner way to handle it if we
wanted to do things like that. But I still think it'll be safer and
more controllable if we provide a "public" namespace instead; see
followup discussions.
