Well, I suppose we might be able to compute the list of accessible
modules instead of listing them by hand. However, I'm not sure that this
would be worth the complexity it would introduce.

Moreover, I believe that Tamar is working towards being able to entirely
lift the need for this list (please correct me if I'm wrong, Tamar). If
things go well his work should be in 8.4.

Cheers,
