To be clear, I am not in favor of renaming the WebCore namespace. But  
changing the KJS namespace to JavaScriptCore instead of JSC would be  
awkward, because it is often actually used to qualify symbols (for  
instance in WebCore headers) and making it very long would make the  
code hard to read.
