Brevity should, generally speaking, always win.

I missed the semantic difference here, but get it now.

require 'libxml'     # LibXML::XML::*
require 'libxml/xml' # XML::*

That concept works for me... though I'd invert it.

require 'libxml'      # XML::*
require 'ilbxml/app'  # LibXML::XML::*

Where 'libxml.rb' does the include, and libxml/app ('gem', or  
whatever), does not.  ??
