I think @iains was bemoaning the large number of module flags recently - perhaps he'd have some thoughts on this, but mine are that we should be more prescriptive - figure out what a good solution is for most users and implement that, rather than giving people lots of knobs to tune.

For this issue - honestly I think it might be a better/safer default to not import external module definitions at all/ever. Leave it to LTO to do that kind of cross-module optimization, as we have in the past/non-modular builds.

At least until/unless we implement something more like what the bug describes - doing IR level optimizations first and importing the optimized IR, rather than reoptimizing these external definitions in every user.
