The difference between the 1 and 3 approaches are that :
- in the 1 approach you can declare as may namespaces as you neeed and restrict
cross-postings
between the namespaces
- in the 3 approach you have only one restrict group and this solution is less flexible
that the previous one

Ben,
Here are a couple of interesting leads:
1. Page access restriction with Wiki (using namespaces)
http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Hidden_pages
2. ...need to be restricted to certain users (things like payroll/budget
information, or staffing discussions) - Note: this solution in my opinion may
be cumbersome on the admin side since ACL is file based and done a per page
basis

3. But this is what you really want... (It being a patch should not be an
issue, many folks are using it)
[description snippet]...I made a patch to enable page restriction under the
MediaWiki software. Pages can be articles or categories. It adds a new
|restrict| tab link allowing members of the group restrict to restrict pages.
Users member of the group viewrestrict can read (and modify) the restricted
pages. Other users cannot see, search, export, etc, the restricted pages. You
can still |protect| them for editing. A restricted page is distinguished by a
red background tab, and you have a special page (Special:Restrictedpages) to
list the restricted pages.

If you really want to keep them separate why not set up two separate wikis?
