Question for my own edification, not really related to the PR: If two packages (say InlineStrings and SaxophoneHorse) have extensions for Parsers, both call their extension module ParsersExt, and you load InlineStrings, SaxophoneHorse, and Parsers, what happens? That is, does the convention of naming an extension module <main package><weakdep>Ext provide functional disambiguation or is it more for the benefit of the human?

Never mind, mostly answered my own question. Extension modules having the same name doesn't cause any issues, so I suppose the naming convention is more for the human's benefit.

Yes, they have different UUID so the loading system can distinguish them.
Rebase of #67.
