Just a quick idea - what if requiring that autoloaders behave deterministically, that is, once a certain autoloader implementation has been given the possibility to find a class it will never be asked again (because it wouldn't find it later on either).
That might allow for caching the decision, so the next time you hit the same unqualified name you know what is meant? Does that make sense?
