I'm not sure how this could work. When switching modules, your app will mostly link to the old module. I don't see how the app could switch to the new module without restart.
Example: mod = require './mod' mod.foo bar How would the mod variable get the new module? Also, you would have to be lucky to have your old module and new module be compatible.
