It breaks about 23 modes from jedmodes.sf.net.

Even if we do fix these, it is not backwards compatible.

I would prefer an optional "namespace" argument over the need to fix
all these 23 modes with a "compatibility switch".

The problem is the order of arguments:

  require(feature, [[filename], namespace]]);
  
or 

  require(feature, [[namespace], filename]]);
