I'm happy to follow consensus here; my only concern is that everything in a
package is (in c++ terms) a friend of everything else. In the absence of
more sophisticated access control, this makes it hard to decompose packages
once they've grown beyond a certain point. So I'm inclined to call
implementor's choice, in general, but ask that you all bear this tendency
in mind as you go.

Cheers
