I should point out that it's intentional that there are very few
similarities between modules and classes. Many attempts have been made
to unify the two, but these never work right, because the module can't
decide whether it behaves like a class or like an instance. Also the
direct access to global variables prevents you to put any kind of code
in the get-attribute path.
