Wrong, this is exactly the problem. I just spend two days evaluating the 
5 or 6 different 'aggregator enhanced' modules out there, and finally 
picked one, founding none of them completely satisfying, while most of 
them having really great bits. Quite frustrating.

Competition can have its merits , but the time and efforts of 
developpers and of the community at large (debugging, reviewing, patch 
submitting...) are generally best put into enriching / strengthening an 
existing module when possible instead of being spilled over 5 or six 
different contribs.
