In fact, one of the main problems with the current pyepl is that it is
NOT modular at all.  You pretty much have to load everything to use
anything.  That's why I'm reluctant to refactor the current pyepl to
use pyglet.  Instead, if we are going to take the time at all to make
any significant changes, it would probably be better to code it up
from scratch (obviously drawing on existing code), but with a
completely modular design from the start.
