The general module design goal is to implement types/providers for most tasks, which has some benefits: - bulk prefetching (of table data in this case) may be an option - single properties of system entities can be modeled separately - the agent will make more succinct and useful reports - it's therefor easier *and* more performant to implement fine grained management ...there may be more. Exec is mainly a crutch for places in which no provider is yet available. It can be worthwile in some instances, of course, but in the majority of applications, there is a strong case for type support.
