That brings up additional questions such as what is standard and whose 
consensus.  You initially referred to Perl, and I note that Perl modules 
shipped with the main Perl package ("standard"?) and those that are not 
provide access to their facilities in identical ways.  That's as far as I can 
read your mind anyway. ;-)
