Yeah, I like this, it's a different way of doing what I was planning to.

IE: The abse bits keep on getting upgraded unless you replace/customise
them.

The problem, though, is what to do with the customised/replaced bits,
particularly if you want to change interfaces...

I wonder if an import-and-merge or something similar has been thought
of?
