A few languages have nested packages. Quite usefull for implementation
packages.
Beware of Wirth's quest for simplicity, even Go is a quite powerful in
regards to Oberon-07.
From my experience in the Oberon world, I got the feeling Wirth isn't
that happy with Active Oberon and Zonnon in terms of language evolution,
where he barely colaborated.
Hence why he eventually came up with Oberon-07, which is even more
minimalist than Oberon.
