Quick comment from over here in non-genius-land...

-1 on the object*adapter notation.
My brain is hardwired to see that as "object times adapter" 
and I just can't make sense of that ;-)

+1 on the (adapter)object notation.
It's a pretty good mnemonic, adapting is sorta like casting.

The namespaces proposal looks fine to me, given that
one believes it is necessary. Never occurred to me before :-)
