Does it make sense to add the look-up to \usemodule?
For example, the following works:
\input
http://github.com/adityam/cut-n-paste/raw/master/tex/context/third/cut-n-paste/t-cut-n-paste.tex
But it will be nice if I could also do
\usemodule[http://github.com/adityam/cut-n-paste/raw/master/tex/context/third/cut-n-paste/t-cut-n-paste.tex]
or
\usemodule[http://..../t-cut-n-paste] % no .tex
or (not really serious here)
\usemodule[http:// ...][t-cut-n-paste] % like \usemodule[p][name] etc.
Of course, this will only work for moudles that provide only one file.
Aditya
