I would not mind having the extra variable on my calc, but as i have written
before it has been tested an "normal" users of the shell does not like to
have all those vars on the calc.
It would be possible to include the libs in the shell variable without
defeating the prupose of libraries. That would however require that you
installed the libs in the shell before using them, and you would need a
program to uninstall the lib again when you did not want them. This would be
a bit more complicated than normal suport of libs, it would take up more
space, and it would not solve the problems mentioned with libs.
