    (How to create a namespace root with an CLSID I don't know, but it sounds cool )
    lol its not that cool I'm afraid :P there are just keys in the registry that contains the information for the shell folders, for the 'god mode' one (which is actually called All Tasks not god mode) it would be:
    HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{ED7BA470-8E54-465E-825C-99712043E01C}
    There are hundreds of subkeys in that CLSID key but not many of them can be used as folder names (well they can but they wont do anything) but if you do some searching in that key for specific things you can find useful ones - for example naming a folder this will make it a shortcut to the Network and Sharing Centre Something.{8E908FC9-BECC-40f6-915B-F4CA0E70D03D} (minus the smiley face of course)
