Ken, I think we need to give you an award for taking mashups to the next level.

Seriously, this kind of cross-modularization is really impressive.

  
You know the credit goes to the Joomla team for creating a de-facto standard for providing an HTML template that calls out to well-defined functions.  If you can intercept and redirect the functions, your framework can use Joomla templates.

All we did was implement simple methods like mosCountModules() and mosLoadModules(), redirecting them to Andromeda functions.  Most of them to tell the truth get discarded, we don't need the full complexity of 9 user module areas, top, debug, etc.

One of our simplest is this:

function mosMainBody() {
  ehStandardContent();  // Call the similar Andromeda function
}
