I agree 200%. In fact I really would like that each module exports
functions (and pseudo-variables) into a namespace, example:

  if userloc.lockup("location")

There are ~ 100 modules right now, each one adding functions and
pseudo variables to the config script. When I see "check_to" or
"is_gw" it's really annoying to know which is the parent module of
those functions. Imagine a newbie inspecting for first time the
example config file.
