Hi, I need to review what that over all situation for this is at this
point. Status is that there was a wish from Paul on how to better kick the
handlers in, which I liked, but got stuck implementing it and kept going
backwards finding out why until it became clear that I need to port my system
tests over from the original implementation in dbcore that had met little love
there. I then waited for integration tests from Russel and Ilya to be merged,
so I don't double their effort but those got stuck, too IIRC. The way forward
should be simple and fast and I'll be happy to finally get it merged.
The start up, as it is, has the weakness that there needs to be knowledge
about the modules in play, which defeats the intended uncoupling. The solution
would be to just re-compile every step of the way when a new app is added
during start up. That makes it fool proof and self-sufficient. Config, as Alex
suggests, should therefore not be needed.
