There's nothing particularly xref-specific in using the one or the other
approach. xref output buffer doesn't display the tag names, only
patterns (although printing the tag names as well can be added).

Yes. I explicitly didn't mention it. Only the time to build the obarray
the first time, as well as non-obarray based completion. You might be
better positioned to judge whether these are serious.

The name segments could be escaped WRT those two characters.

Sure, it's a good argument.

They are not hard to learn. IMO, "::" is a bad separator for method
qualifier, since the same operator is used for namespace resolution.
