Um, why? I don't see any need at all for them to move from
module-status to core-language-status.
The only way that I could understand the desire for it would be if one
wanted to write little scripts that were basically just some control
flow around regexes and string substitution. That is, something that
looked like most of the programs written in that other P language. ;-)
In all seriousness, what reason do you have for making that
suggestion? I am willing to believe that there might be a good reason
to do so, but it certainly isn't immediately obvious.
