+1 You only understand how non-intuitive current [declare] is once you've attempted to describe it simply to a roomful of learners. Not saying current situation isn't a huge improvement over where we were umpteen years ago but if there's the option to make it even simpler & more straightforward plus portable - yes please.

Actually, that's not a bad idea at the expense of a little more searching. [declare] then behaves more like the lua loader which searches for both binary and script modules, which I find relatively easy to use. I don't think this would break existing patches and would also honor the relative path restrictions for self contained projects, where specifying a relative path starting with ./ or ../ only searches locally.
