I have had no problems so far. And my identifiers are usually a little longer, and I generally use qualified imports.

(In my opinion a well designed module system has to not import the name of the module/package when you import qualified names from it.)

No meglomania, I think. I did chose "d" because it's short and I was unable to invent a better name... But I've I have said it's not a problem, changing the package name requires me just few minutes.
