It would take some work, but it would be nice if modules could also be 
unloaded. Modules could call a function to suggest that it's okay to unload 
them. Later they could cancel that action. The module loader could periodically 
unload functions that signaled they were ready to be unloaded more than a 
minute ago without a later cancellation.
