You are right about the namespace compatibility issue. But the point that InsightFX made about the usage of 'var' is on point. Additionally I would suggest using the type hinting feature that's existed since PHP 5.0.
It's not just for classes, but it's for arrays to. If a function or method is needing an array as an argument it's a trivial step to prepend an 'array' before the argument variable. i.e. function foo($fi, array $fum=array()) I've seen code in the loader that simply checks to make sure an argument is an array, and if it's not, just silently converts the argument to a NULL. This trait is undocumented in the User Guide. There isn't even a hint via code comment why this is even done. I only found it by actually looking at the library load code (which revealed other undocumented features). In fact I saw unreachable legacy code there from the previous edition of CI. Yes, I could do a rewrite and a pull. (And contribute to the documentation since I'm complaining about it).

I'll post a code suggestion in an appropriate location if someone can tell me where.
