Once you become accustomed to the modules' naming conventions it's not difficult
to use the RKRMs to locate components in the modules. What about all the code
already written against E's current modules? I myself would not look forward to
converting a project the size of my EPP program (or larger!) if Wouter changes
the existing component names. Anyway, I think mp_sigbit is redundant since the
component belongs to an mp object. I'm convinced Commodore set that convention
because of C programmers' infamous tendency to use such descriptive variable
names as "a" and "x". :-)
