Summary: Modularization

Initial Comment:
I submit that it would be less confusing to users if you 
split up the executable and just had it as an interface, 
with various modules for Scumm v.X games and another 
for the Simon games, another for BASS etc. This would 
also allow more people to contribute different engines, 
similar to how people are now contributing protocols to 
another of my favourite Sourceforge projects, Miranda 
IM, since it broke down the exe and modularized protocol 
handling.

I'm attempting to make contact with developers of the 
Kyrandia series so as to check their willingness to help 
preserve their masterpieces by developing a portable 
Kyrandia engine, standalone or as a module for 
ScummVM.

I believe the intent is dynamic modules that can be loaded
at run-time, rather than compile-time; something like a
plugin interface.

ScummVM *is* already modular.
