Hey there,

we’ve been using dry-container for a while now and it’s great. But we’ve stumbled into a “issue” which I would like to discuss and see if it’s possible to get it working. We got the following situation:

```
...
namespace('config') do
  register('database_url') { ENV.fetch('DATABASE_URL') }
end

namespace('databases') do
  register('postgres', memoize: true) { Sequel.connect(resolve('config.database_url')) }
end
...

```

Now when we run this the `config.database_url` is resolved to `databases.config.database_url` instead. Is there a possible way to get the database\_url from the right namespace without the nested `databases`?

When I look up the [namespace dsl](https://github.com/dry-rb/dry-container/blob/master/lib/dry/container/namespace_dsl.rb#L49) I noticed the `resolve` method always namespaces a key. So I assume there is no work around.
