A lot of modules will have to be removed anyway as there are no
resources to keep them all. Replacing YCP seems more feasible with a
limited set of modules (implementing a limited set of features)

I would assume this will add confusion.

Can you name any specific areas in YCP urgently requiring fixes ?

Having good APIs is certainly a big plus, but investing into YCP does
not seem appropriate.

Can we make existing YaST modules reusable, i.e. by providing well
defined APIs (D-Bus, REST, Perl, Python, Ruby, whatever) ?
