Yes

Except "pool-namespace" is not a standalone property, it's tied to the
pool that you are hiding in the "name". A "pool-namespace" of "ns1" in
pool "pool1" is not the same as the namespace "ns1" in pool "pool2".
Like I said, you seem to be developing your own unique RBD image-spec
format.

$ rbd namespace create rbd/ns1
$ rbd create --size 1G rbd/ns1/image1
$ rbd info rbd/ns1/image1
rbd image 'image1':
    size 1 GiB in 256 objects
... snip ...

The rbd CLI will always treat that middle section as a namespace so
for your example it would be pool rbd, namespace hhan, and image name
1.

That's not true, RBD has not permitted "/" in pool nor image names for
years -- and it's definitely not allowed when creating images in
namespaces:

$ rbd create --size 1G rbd/ns1/image1/
rbd: invalid spec 'rbd/ns1/image1/'
$ rbd create --size 1G --pool rbd --namespace ns1 --image "image1/"
rbd: invalid spec 'image1/'

Is this a bug in "qemu-img" that allowed you to create "hhan/2" below?
Does it allow you to create that image in a namespace or does your
example no longer work? QEMU should also parse that middle section as
the namespace [1].
