Comment (by taraschr):

 The OP is still here 😃
 I would say it is not a BC change for the core by itself.

 I've revisited my proposal, and I believe the better approach is to create
 existing functions and classes aliased in namespaces (e.g., a PSR-4
 compatible structure) and then gradually start migrating the internal
 codebase to namespace-based functions and classes, leaving the old ones as
 a global fallback.

 Such an approach would allow us to avoid critical BC changes.
