from the "hey, life's a compromise, do the best you can" department:
but try and balance that against the "platoon rule"; each sublayer in
the hierarchy should have no more than 12 subordinates. Beyond that it
becomes overwhelming to keep track of and quickly navigate through.
I guess groups of modules separated by horizontal line breaks within a
single menu could help with the compromise.
