As a potential user of such a library I would like to mention that for
my part namespaces are important.  I, personally, try to stay away
from USEing too many packages which in turn helps me document my code
(ie. you'll read html-generator:*html-stream* rather than
*html-stream* in my code).  I used to use Onshored's big ball of mud
but I never liked it because it was all one namespace and it was never
easy to remember was the ball of mud consisted of.

Even if you want a "Standard Library" (I like the sound of this so
far) I don't see why you couldn't keep the namespaces.  Just declare
that the "Standard Library" provides x, y and z packages and you get
to use the ones you need.  That was perhaps what you meant by
"Standard Library Set".

Just my $0.02,
Erik.
