Well, I guess all I wanna say is... is there *ANY* way to do it w/ less callbacks? It's very difficult to follow what's going on for what. If you think all those callbacks are absolute necessities, can you please at least add boatload of comments around them explaning what they're meant to do and how they're gonna be used? It's probably because I don't have any experience with namespaces but I really can't wrap my head around it as it currently stands.
