The option solution completely avoids that possibility.

That's true, I stand corrected. I was thinking of the find_user_command function
because it's what I based the find_user_library function on.
They are all implemented in terms of the find_user_command_internal.

The option character isn't important. Is it useful to have an additional
option to `source' that forces it to use $BASH_SOURCE_PATH, or should that
behave like other builtins ($CDP
Honestly, I share the same feeling as the others about the name
`library'. The use of the ``library'' feels something wrong in this
context.
I still think the variable name should be BASH_SOURCE_PATH. I've
suggested `-l' as an *example*, but that's just because I couldn't

By this definition, dynamic languages and scripting languages don't have
libraries.
They clearly do have libraries. Sometimes they're called modules but it's the
same thing.

I think it's actually the source builtin which incorrectly
implies that all sourced scripts are executables
when they might actually be libraries and modules.

I don't think so. A library is just a logical collection of code and data
that you can use to implement software. This is a mechanism meant
to load those libraries separately from executables.
