I think we're safe <wink>:

>>> function
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
NameError: name 'function' is not defined


OTOH, I would like to have an object derived class called 'callable'.

>>> module
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
NameError: name 'module' is not defined>


Seriously, though, when we adopt your module interface changes, your idea
of making an object-derived class for module might be a good one.
