I keep thinking there's gotta be a way to do this without
language changes.
Any specific ideas? I can't imagine any clean solution - and
proposed language extensions fits naturally into existing
system without introducing any new concepts. It is also
somewhat frequently asked about in NG.
Yeah, I don't see how this could be done without a language
change. Currently, modules in sub-packages are treated no
differently from modules in completely different packages, so
anything you did to give access to a module in a super-package to
one in a sub-package would give access to any module.
