but is it or will it be a common usage pattern? For me, in the most 
common cases, code using ASM, like dynamic language compilers, is a kind 
of "meta code" using "quoted" values, e.g. class names instead of Class 
objects, quite distinct from the "user" or "base level" or "ASM 
generated" code using the real values. So it should not be a problem if 
"quoted" and "real" concepts are represented with classes having the 
same names in different packages (again, in most common cases).

ok, thanks
