Agree. We'll have to publish an API before anyone will be
willing to write and support non-trivial modules.
My original intention was for
modules to be indistinguishable from
C code found in the src/ tree, if for no other reason, so that systems
which did not support dynamic loading could still use the code. If we
break this, I think we will have lost a good design goal.
