Hi, I'd also be interested how this works exactly.
I don't think the components get scoped by module in the way you want. It seems the components are scoped by group (main, sub app, etc...) It seems to me the modules just load in order, and can overwrite previously loaded module's component definitions if they redefine the same types. The final config created after all modules load is the one that is then used by the whole system. So to override a definition, it should be enough to make sure the module that contains the new def loads after the one with the old def, for example by configuring the old def's module as a dependency in the new def's module. However, in the code, ComponentProvider instances are initialized with slightly tweaked configurations in different situations, like for apps and sub apps... So using these providers could yield different results. Maybe someone at magnolia Inc. can elucidate this a bit more clearly...
