I discovered this recently when trying out elm-server-side-renderer .  The 
elm compiler is parsing the repository url in elm-package.json and using 
what would be the user name and repository fields for these.  Apparently, 
what you have is what happens when the repository url doesn't point to 
github or something similar (mine all do).  

In normal operation, modules with identical names in different imported 
packages are differentiated this way within the scope of the function the 
elm runtime is defined in.

When importing modules with native code the source-directories list, native 
js can refer to the wrong name and need to be trivially transformed to 
match the rest of the generated code.
