  Maybe if someone would finally produce some rational arguments why the
current usage of 'using namespace' should be kept and the problems kludged

  People say "it would reduce readability/maintainability", "many experts
advocate the usage of 'using' statements". Could some rational arguments
explaining these claims be given?
