CORBA23 — name scoping issue

Summary: In the course of a discussion Philippe Gautron pointed out to me that in
ISO-C++, the scope of a class begins with its declaration, and hence a
member or type declaration in the class may not introduce the same name
as that of the class, exception being constructors of the class.
Analogous rules apply to struct and namespace. When this principle is
extended to the case insensitivity of IDL a consequence is that

interface I

;

is illegal as is:

module M {
interface m

;
};

The basic rule is that the name of the scope, if it has one is
implicitly inserted into the scope and hence cannot be reused for other
purposes in that scope. Given that IDL has to be mapped to C++ this
seems like an eminently reasonable restriction. However, I could not
find this explicitly stated anywhere. Do y"all feel this is reasonable?
If so, and if it is indeed not mentioned then I think we should add a
line or two in 3.13 clarifying this?
