Is it just user defined types? Because I don't have this problem with either variables or functions, but I may not have come across it with UDT's. I agree that - since BMax lets you specify a namespace - it would be nice to be able to do this. Although I'm not sure what would happen if you didn't specify a namespace, but I guess it's already trying to decide that with functions and variables, so I guess the same precedence could apply.
