Usage of abbreviations in namespaces

Created by: siebenkopf

When I try to read some C++ code of Bob, I often step over an abbreviated namespace (like tp for bob::python). Also in the python code, sometimes packages are abbreviated or, even worse, "from xxx import yyy as zzz" is used. This makes the code really hard to read since I always have to scroll up to the definition of abbreviation to understand, what is actually called.

I definitely would go for removing all these abbreviations and using the fully qualified names. I know that writing code this way may take a little longer, but I think it is worth the time. And most of the editors provide automatic source completion, that speeds up the typing.

What do you think about this?
