+1 on keeping the "after-namespaces" change in 6.0.

And I agree with Xavier and Arvid, it's not worth to backport that CGL
to 4.5..4.7. The CGL could have a general remark pointing out that "the
current CGL is valid for the current TYPO3 minor release, even if some
further CGL update is released in future, changing some aspect of it.",
which would mean that the "old CGL" still applies to older releases.
