There are a number of good reasons to do this from an internals standpoint, 
enough that I'd like to do it.

 From an externals standpoint, though... I've yet to hear a compelling 
reason to require a "use thingies;" to yank 'em in. That being the case, 
I've a scheme that makes them external as far as the internals are 
concerned, but internal as far as the externals are concerned. Best of both 
worlds, more or less.
