This doesn't scale well, suppose that I want to extend Top_Bottom,
then I have a module called Top_Bottom_Myextension. I think 'include'
is a better mechanism if you need to extend modules.
Another problem of this solution is that you cannot open modules
hierarchically, e.g. open Top but use the dot notation for Bottom.
