Can't add a script as a component when there are two classes with the same Name in the script but in different Namespaces
Can't add a script as a component when there are two classes with the same Name (one is a MonoBehaviour, the other isn't) in the same script , but in different Namespaces
Reproduction steps:
1. Open "PROJECT TO IMPORT ASSETS.zip" project
2. Try to add the "BreaksParser.cs" script as a component
3. A pop-up appears "Can't add script"
Expected Result: Script is added as a component as it has a valid MonoBehaviour in its second Namespace
Actual Result: Can't add a script as a component when there are two classes with the same Name, but in different Namespaces
Reproduced with: 2020.1.0a12, 2019.3.0b10, 2019.3.0b9, 2019.3.0b8, 2019.3.0b7, 2019.3.0b5, 2019.3.0b4
Did not reproduce on: 2019.3.0b3, 2019.3.0b1, 2019.3.0a1, 2019.2.12f1, 2018.4.12f1, 2017.4.34f1
Warning:
Class BreaksParser can not exist in multiple namespaces in the same file, even if one is excluded with preprocessor directives. Please move these to separate files if this is the case.
Note:
The issue doesn't repro in 2019.3.0b4 if last opened version was lower

I tried to add the "BreaksParser.cs" as a component, but there I didn't get the pop-up.

I don't know if this comment will be ever read, but this compiler warning is indeed generated also when monobehaviours are not used:

What will happen if the warning is ignored? Will anything break or be broken in the future?

Resolution Note:
Currently this is by design. Only have one namespace and type in your file, if it inherits from MonoBehavior or ScriptableObject.
