We certainly need something in this direction. We should be clear that each language has its own namespace for modules. We should also have a way to specify language as part of a dependency name, to manage cross-language dependencies. Doing those suggests that language could be consistently stated in META as part of the module name, rather than needing a separate field. -zefram
