But prefixing it with GLOBAL doesn't help matters.

GLOBAL::A::foo();

Could be a function foo() in namespace GLOBAL::A or a class method
A::foo() in namespace GLOBAL.

And frankly, if you're "standing outside" A, it doesn't usually make any
difference whether it's a namespace or a class. Class methods can be
called just the same.
