Exceptions in __autoload()

There's been many talks on exceptions cannot be thrown from the __autoload() function, as well as many times the workarounds have been discussed (all using the eval() trick to automatically define the missing class).

In this article, I would like to disagree with those ideas and advocate PHP5 namespaces, as well as to express some personal opinions about their implementation.
