 The namespace is accessible via the YR_RULE struct:
 
https://github.com/VirusTotal/yara/blob/master/libyara/include/yara/types...
 
 Yet is nowere to be found in the C API documentation.
 
http://yara.readthedocs.io/en/v3.5.0/capi.html#c.YR_RULE
 
 That's why I kept it out of the scope. I can obviously add it but we're 
 not sure whether they will expose it differently in future versions of Yara. 
Drat... Maybe it would be worth asking them if it's just a documentation
issue, or it is really private. In any case, it is not a big issue at
the moment.

 We surely can do. I'll see what can be done. Maybe an optional parameter 
 "namespace" in the yara_load API. 
Right, that is what I was thinking about.
