Description
Please allow modules to be imported on the command-line (e.g. with -R) by their list names. This is currently impossible; if I want to import `(srfi 160 u8)`, for example, I have to use `-R srfi.160.u8`. Making this more confusing is the special form for "srfi" eggs, where the module `(srfi nnn)` has the symbolic name `srfi-nnn` (and not `srfi.nnn`). So you've got to remember `-R srfi-nnn` for some modules and `-R srfi.nnn.foo` for others.
Please simplify this mess and allow us to use the list names.
