Gang (read Rickard), there are big visibility problems, that we need to address asap.
There are several places where we have methods that returns the Composite meta data, whether that be getCompositeBindings() or lookupServices(), where it is very unclear who is responsible for providing the visibility rules. IMHO, we should have a separation of calls to the various ModuleXyz classes between "give me what you have" and "give me what you can see". For instance; ModuleBinding.getCompositeBindings() --> Returns the composite bindings held by the module. ModuleBinding.findCompositeBindings() --> Return all composites that the Module can see. And do this for ModuleBinding, ModuleContext and ModuleInstance, and possibly other places. Right now, there is a mish-mash of code everywhere handling the visibility rules, and even clients will at the moment need to code around this as well. WDYT?
