That is because some code has NOTHING to do with SharpDevelop ... like 
the Refactory,
ZipLib, Assembly stuff (or the text editor). Therefore it got an own 
namespace.
But I've a 'mother' namespace (ICSharpCode) for the WHOLE stuff.

The core has an own namespace service because it is in another assembly 
which doesn't have
too much to do with the base ... the base 'adds' some more services but 
they're only useful for
the #D project.
I agree that some namespaces might have no sense ... but most do.
