I think you're right.  As Antoine pointed out in irc, for POSIX platforms, modules in os are almost exclusively atomic.  This is a useful (if undocumented) feature from a security viewpoint, and we should not break it lightly.

Closing as wontfix.  If someone thinks it's salvageable and wants to resurrect it, please discuss here.
