Note : All Foobar/Talk subpages have been automatically converted to talk:Foobar! There should be a green link on every article page leading to the talk namespace.
If a /Talk space doesn't exist, and you create one, is it still supposed to map to a talk: space ? Currently, it doesn't. (Check out architechure/Talk, which I just did)

I didn't restrict page titles with "/", so you can still create a /talk subpage to every page, even within the talk: namespace. Your Architecture/Talk page even has its own talk: namespace. I hope people will not create /talk subpages when they have a talk: namespace, but I don't think I could (or should) stop them.
Or should I?

In my opinion, just an opinion as a user, I think you should restrict them from doing that. It will be too confusing. Lots of old users will drop back by, unaware of software changes, and we should try to make everything seamless for them.
If they try /Talk, they surely just mean talk: in the new system. So we can make that transition for them, as transparently as possible?
Other opinions?
