I have a small suggestion to make on the matter:

Since all application are supposed to have a unique four letter signature
(creator code), which should be reserved with Apple (
http://developer.apple.com/datatype/), I think it would be a simple way to
ensure there is no cocoa name clash by using this four letter code as a
prefix.

Regards,
Antoine
