If I use packages only in my application, do I not need to think?

Name them so that anyone can understand.

If you have an internal package http (let's assume that's the best name somehow) under internal/ packages folder than you can just give in an alias during an import.

If the package is intended to be used (can be used) by other dev's you better think of those things you've mentioned but in the end it's their job to keep their code clean.

Oh, internal/ is easy to understand.
That's a good idea, I thought too.
Thanks for your feedback!
