That's also true of modules for which there are very good reasons
for not sharing certain kinds of data.    (02)

In fact, just look at Tim B-L's DAML proposal of Feb 2000.  He itemized
several reasons why methods for limiting access to certain kinds of data
are needed.  That's just one of many requirements in the DAML proposal
that the DAML project ignored.    (03)

General principle:  We need better methods for sharing what should be
shared and restricting what should be restricted.    (04)
