There are people in third world countries who would be jealous of a 300kbps
connection that worked after a few tries. There are much worse. I used to live
in Papua New Guinea. Very expensive and poor Internet. Vanuatu is worse...

If most frontends download the zipped module, perhaps that is sufficient for in

Is at rest size really an issue? I think most people would have a module or two.
BTW, I have heard in 3rd world countries cellular is often the only means of
accessing the internet and thus downloading files and that connections are not
reliably stable.
I'm in the US and cellular is my only means of accessing the Internet,
and at one point that cellular link gave me about 300Kbps max download
speed. Downloads failed often and installing modules via Xiphos was a
pain.
