Your absolutely right. Thanks for pointing this out - it gives me an excuse
for a more detailed explanation. :)

Reserving a range of resource IDs for shared libraries doesn't solve all our
problems, but I think it's a step in the right direction. Some of the
problems we haven't addressed:
- app uses two libs at once
- lib uses another lib
- libs running in other tasks

You guys shouldn't have to worry about the last one. The other two will
require the libraries to agree not to stomp on each other. If a library
doesn't keep databases open, it shouldn't have any problems. If it does,
it'll have to document the range of IDs it uses so that the app can avoid ID
conflicts when using two libraries at once.

If you have any ideas for how we can address these problems, please let me
know. Thanks.
