Hi, Great idea! It would make Java/Python APIs more manageable as well => we could group related APIs in packages/namespaces.
But have you considered dependencies between the groups? It could be useful for example to be able to define a custom type that is used in two different groups.

The current setup is a historical artifact. Thanks...

The api files in particular strike me as unmanageably large right now. I've especially wondered if the API code for each "thing" can move physically closer the "thing" it provides an interface for.

Thanks... Dave
