Sure!

So, I sort of took the simple swing here as adding it as a module w/o
a unregister makes it a "permanent" module. It loads but cannot be
unloaded. I know this isn't ideal, but it's also a big improvement
over it being limited to it being required as a built-in. I'll take a
look at it though to see if its workable to be removable.
