   [{
     "id" : null,
     "limit" : 1000,
     "query:type" : [],
     "type" : "/type/domain"
   }]

It looks to me as if /type and /wikipedia are the only domains that are 
co-typed namespaces.  I'll fix the documentation error Will points out.

I'm pretty sure that when I explain keys and namespaces in more detail 
in the next chapter I explicitly state that any object, regardless of 
how it is typed, can serve as a namespace.  And that the only point of 
/type/namespace is clarity and easy access to /type/namespace/keys.

jg: are you suggesting that it is incorrect to use an object as a 
namespace if is not typed /type/namespace?
