What you think?
I particularly like this idea from the standpoint of delivering a modules that exist within their own context. It is actually not that dissimilar from Forth systems that use different vocabs to support multiple incompatible applications at the same time. Something like this would solve one of the problems I've been running into recently, where some code keeps mucking up the SystemDictionary's associations causing the Compiler to error out.
