That seems to me that it would be the "almost" perfect solution. No need to
ask queries in PREPARE, and the spells that needed would be recast after boot,
putting the modules in the correct place. The only problem would be if you
needed one of these already cast to boot... But that could be worked around.
At least we could download the needed sources before booting, in case any was
missing.
