Yep. WebIDL _had_ modules support, but we all suggested it be removed since no 
one needed it. I'm only saying that I'm still not sure we'd need to 
re-introduce it.

I'll side note that Windows 8's WinRT namespace (window.Windows) would require 
modules in order to specify all the supported features using WebIDL.
