Proposal: Can custom tag use namespace

[limodou]

How to use namespace? For example,

{% load example %}
{% example.testtag %}

And I think if the namespace can be optional is better. I don't know
if it's useful, but sometimes I read others projects, and as I reading
the template, I don't know which tag is in which file. So find the
correct tag definition file is somewhat diffcult. If I can add
namespace in the front of a custom tag name, it'll be easy to locate
the source file.

If it's not useful, just put it away. That's ok.

It would be nice mechanism to fully qualify a particular tag.

so for example if I had a 'calendar' tag, and hugo also had one, and I needed to use another templatetag of his in the same file I could specify

{% ian.calendar %}  instead of {% calendar %} so the template would know which one I was referring to.

Hi limodou,

This would be a nice improvement, and it seems like it could be
accomplished in a backwards-compatible fashion, by allowing
non-qualified template tag names. Would you (or anybody else) be
interested in coming up with a solution?

Ok, I'll try to implement it.
