   Yes that can be a benefit but for now while the API is not stable it's
   more simple to work in a sole package. ie there is no need to manage
   explicitly exported symbols.
   But when things become more stable we can of course split clfswm in
   more packages.

Fair enough and perfectly agreed here.
