That's a good point.  Does

   foo.1.2.3.sls

correspond to

   (foo (1 2 3))
   (foo.1 (2 3))
   (foo.1.2 (3))
   (foo.1.2.3 ()) ?

Hyphens would have the same problem.  So the mapping defined
in the appendix would put additional constraints on library
naming.

Also, many source distributions would include toplevel programs.
Where should one put them?
