Make Modular 2, III, IV modules themselves

Ok, so this is somewhat directed at djmicron, and you're great work in bundling some synths as modules.
Which made me think...what if the Modular shell itself was a module? Then one can make custom filters, or effects, and wrap them inside multiple modular shells themselves. Improve your filter, and all other modular patches get updated.
I have wished that the modular shell could do this itself: instead of writing out a device to save a program, write out a module!
I can envision this new device as being just like the "insert device" module, but with 2/4 or 8/8 I/O, along with MIDI. Then load your selected modular device inside. It'd be REALLY cool if the top-level modular shell could get a program change message, and loads a new device in this new device, but that might not be possible, and really just a nice to have.
