Agreed. However, I'm dealing with a few classes that were designed to
be singletons and statically instantiated, ie a class FontsManager is
instantiated as FontsManager. Thus, there are no "sons" here.

AFAIK the only solution is to change the name of the class. Maybe
someone has a better solution for this that doesn't involve (1)
removing the namespace and (2) changing the instance variable name?

Any comments/suggestions will be greatly appreciated.
