This looks like a very nice idea, but I wonder why you don't put it through the SRFI process.
To my mind, doing this as a SRFI would bring two significant benefits.
1. Quality and breadth of review. I'm sure there are many nits in the attempt to define a common module API, and a SRFI review would help to identify and discuss those.
2. Traction/authority. Something like this will only succeed if it succeeds, if you know what I mean. Getting it approved as a SRFI would give it a lot more authority and persuade a lot of people (including myself) that it really was the way to write modules in future.
