       <p>That's not the case. The issue is one of severity: if a module cannot load itself, it should return DECLINE if the system can reasonably function without the module. If the module cannot load itself and the system cannot function - or should not function - without the module, it should return FAILURE.</p>

<p>Crafting a one size fits all policy isn't a good idea. Rather, module writers should use common sense about what a user would most likely want when an error condition occurs, and write their module appropriately. (Also, module return codes is not the purpose of this wiki page.)</p>

        <p>Reading this in detail now.  I notice that AST_MODULE_LOAD_FAILURE is omitted.  If it is not to be used lets say so here.</p>
