Yeah. If the schema-per-module answer were really a good answer,
we'd have done it before now. But you need more infrastructure
than just a schema to get good things to happen. Aside from the
search-path-hell issue, a schema alone doesn't solve the problem
of persuading pg_dump to dump a "load module" command rather than
the individual module components.
