Is there any particular reason why not to move them out of the kit? I  
suppose that this is because it would take quite some efforts to  
extract and abstract common functionalities and such?

Personally I think that it depends on the message that we want to  
send. If we want other people to start writing modules, then  
everything that is not core DSO should be a separate module with  
separate sources, as a separate project. Doing this will also make  
the module system and our API itself more robust, as we'll start  
using it for more complex use-cases and we'll be exposes ourselves to  
the problems and oversights early on. Otherwise, the handful of  
people that might consider writing a module risk hitting these and be  
discouraged.

Just my 2c.
