Recently it came up that, for the purposes of ensuring MathWorks bundles don't conflict with third party bundles, it would be a good idea to use reverse-DNS notation for MathWorks bundle names.

Doing this accomplishes the following:

  1. help ensure unique bundle names
  2. bundles are easily identified as being from the MathWorks.
  3. inline with OSGi convention (i.e. allows reverse-DNS for the symbolic bundle name).

Currently this isn't possible with the current implementation since the bundle name (taken from the US_BUNDLE_NAME preprocessor) is used to generate an extern "C" function.

When introducing the preprocessor token, I was thinking that we could use _ instead of . for reverse-DNS names and convert between the two where appropriate (during lookups, human readable text, etc.). What do you think?
