Strauss replacing strings that looks like class name

If you want to test that locally simply clone repository and run composer install.

TL;DR - Strauss replaces string values to the FQCN if it matches the name of the imported class that is used in the same file. Is it possible to exclude this behavior somehow? I've tried using exclude_from_prefix but without success

For anyone interested - running strauss --updateCallSites=false disables replacements in project files. It does not solve the issue, but for me it resolves my problem.

Feel free to close that issue if there are no plans to take on that.

updateCallSites should be false by default. So maybe that’s a bug itself.

To the original issue — I haven’t come up with a way to address it. It is a namespace, and namespaces are correctly required to be replaced in strings, but I don’t know how to disambiguate a namespace from a proper noun when they are the exact same string.

Ideally all projects would use Company\Project style namespaces. As suggested (not required) in PSR-4.

If you have a suggestion on how to tell them apart, let me know.
