I think the big gain is that users of IDEs would just be able to graphically
organize modules in Xcode. Non-IDE users could use the finder to organize
things into nested folders. This maps pretty well with the way I organize my
code already (others may be different), so it doesn’t add much complexity.
On a side note, I do think that people will quickly want a way to reference a
particular submodule boundary with access modifiers. It may not be part of
this proposal, but it is somewhat inevitable. We should consider that as we
consider this proposal…
Thanks,
Jon
