I'd say no, you are adding dead code, so you might want to merge it with 2/11 to avoid that.

Well, it isn't dead-code.  Patch contains one complete thing.  It
introduces an new switch.  I separate this switch out, as it can be
reviewed absolutely independently to the actual namespace lexer/parser
thing (which is the first user of this switch).
Jacek asked me to break things down in small logical pieces, so I did.

Yeah, deciding on how much to split patches is sometimes tricky. This
patch does not introduce dead code (but rather dead command like
argument), so I think it's fine. This needs man page update, but that
may be done as a follow up.
