SLIME transmits always the current package over the wire -- so does DIME.

But Dylan has the concept of both libraries (unit of compilation), modules (namespace); and additionally Open Dylan imposes an "active project" (the one we're interested in).

These 3 things make sense to a certain extend: names are mangled regarding the project, library and module. Unfortunately both the emacs and dylan side only transmit a single piece of information - the module. This should be modified so that the full information is transmitted for each request. This would minimize state on one of the sides, and therefore less stuff can get out of sync.
