> I should have a unit test soon, but the gist of the problem is that private confs "leak" from dependencies to the module being resolved, so a conf in the current module with the same name as a private conf in a dependent module may not work right.  This seems analogous to the kind of problems that would happen if Java allowed private methods to be overridden.
