the whole const_missing autoloading thing has a number of quirks. Namespaced models aren't used very often, at least in the past there have been a number of edge cases.

Thanks Fred!

Should I open a feature request athttp://rails.lighthouseapp.comor does the rails core team provide a possibilty to vote for new features?

You might want to post to the rubyonrails-core google group. Although like I said, last time this was discussed it wasn't clear what to do about it.
