What I wanted to say that if repository with namespaces has its own
not namespaced refs, then (sub)namespaces are probably forks, and
"forks"-like behavior would be a good idea.

If namespaced repository serves only to save space, then it wouldn't
have its own refs, only namespaced ones.  Then we would list them
as separate repositories.
