Details:

I saw an old thread about supporting Matlab's namespace convention. You put a
folder in the path starting with a plus character then all functions inside
the folder can be called by prepending the folder name.

E.g. the folder is

+mydir

and the functions inside are called by mydir.myfunction()

It seems it was not implemented in Octave. Is there any plan to do so? There's
a lot of code out there using the convention that won't run in Octave.
