It hasn't been done because I don't think it's a good idea.  There are
a couple reasons for this. First, I really don't want to add a search
path to the module resolution algorithm.  Second, there's no actual
good way to tell if a module is typed, esp. without loading the module
first.  That's in addition to the costs Matthias mentions.
