I personally think the best solution would be that each contrib has
its own .asd file which lists TBNL amongst its dependencies.  That way
it's pretty clear without further explanations how the contrib is to
be loaded.

I'll add a TBNL-CONTRIB package to TBNL which 'uses' CL and TBNL.  So
you can use it or you can provide your own package as you like.
