Warma: I'm not sure what the complaint is, but I think OTS2 is an improvement over OTS1 in this regard. Both will load the version of the module that the themer specified (unless you do a search and replace to change that), but OTS2 will only keep one copy of each version of each module, while OTS1 would keep one for each theme, even if they're the same version.

doy: NetLoadModule doesn't know what theme is loaded, or if you're using the old method of putting all your settings in the root step.rc.

I thought about separating the module name and version number, but instead (for the purposes of an auto-updater) you can just use the first - as a delimiter. Passing them separate wouldn't really make things more complicated by much, but as long as module names don't contain hyphens, there's no gain.
