 > Perhaps we should consider all pros and cons. For example, lets say we
 have an action 'init' with several namespaces/children: 'init.some',
 'init.some.more', 'init.other'.

 Keep it very simple, like the original wiki:

    ''"What's the simplest thing that will work?"''

 If there have ideas we ''might'' want to implement, like using periods for
 namespacing, then enforce a convention where hook names can't contain
 periods in the first implementation. Then wait and see how people actually
 use JavaScript actions and filters before making them more advanced based
 on speculation.

 Better to get something simple into 3.5 than waiting who knows how many
 versions for perfection.  ''Shipping is a feature.'' :)
