@Simons:
i'm having a minor problem with this one: getting the info is easy enough,
but a name might be both module and something else, so i'd like `:info` to
check both, reporting errors only if it can't find either. but the error
output for the existing checks seems to be hardwired deep in the call
chain, so i don't know how to disable that for names that have successful
module information.
