An interesting idea.
In any case, a module list should be separate from components. A custom 
app would only allow entry there if Lib is a selected component. Such 
could also use a selecton screen with multiple columns rather than a 
single column. But we are limited to what can be done with a web 
interface. If Lib is not selected and modules are entered, Lib could be 
autoselected as it is unlikely that one would type in module names if it 
should not be. A back-end check against would be nice, but would suffer 
from the update problem, as well as module name changes.
