#3i am so glad to be reminded of this. Now i just need to implement a filter for assetic at some point.
Assetic still relies on opti{png,jpeg} which i'm sure works pretty well, but also requires one to call out to an external program.

Since this is a PHP 5.3 library it's using PHP namespaces.

It's PHP 5.3's namespacing functionality, in a nutshell.
Symfony2 and Lithium are two frameworks I can currently think of that use them extensively. On the one hand, Symfony2 has a quite extreme implementation, and on the other, Lithium's is much more concise. The backslashes can be used to represent a hierarchy.

#10This has appeared at just the right time, now I'm re-working my project's image manipulation classes. The PHP GD library functions are a nightmare for readability.
I'll be having a little play about with what I intend to implement and if it works out well I'll likely implement it in my project proper!

Seems to me that PHP needs to turn its own primitives into objects so they can be type hinted. Trying to figure out which of a dozen number validation functions to use is an utter clusterfuck at the best of times.
