Then the user should know that and update the source file :-). It can be a 
normal error prompt, the one where you get a question mark and are asked 
if you want to continue or abort (rather than enter the file name prompt 
of \input).

I do feel that for user modules, there should be an error when the module 
is not found. If you do not want the above behaviour as a default, it 
could be a configurable option.
