Okay.  I think I've got it now.  I'm not convinced that the way you've chosen 
is the correct way, primarily because the separation between supermodule and 
submodule is not strong.  Regardless, as you're doing it, you get to pick :-) 
Is there a public repository I can look at to see what you've done?  I'm 
interested in the sort of plumbing changes needed to make something like this 
work.
