Well, what I was hoping in my idealised vision of wxc separation was that
we could ship wxcore with all the auto-generated parts, leaving the
user with only Haskell modules to build.  The requirements then would
be for the user to have installed wxc already, much in the same way
that we already require that they install wxWidgets.  [My one worry is
how to make it so that when people use the wxcore package, the
necessary wxc stuff is linked in, but I'm guessing Cabal has a
mechanism for this]

For this to work, I'm guessing that your proposal for increased
modularity (wx-contribs/) would need to be implemented, so that we can
just distribute a bog-standard wxcore, and let people do their own
wxdirect on whatever extra modules they want.
