Package level objects
=====================
Every Nim module resides in a (nimble) package. An object type can be attached
to the package it resides in. If that is done, the type can be referenced from
other modules as an `incomplete`:idx: object type. This features allows to

object types are always passed ``byref`` and can only be used in pointer like
contexts (``var/ref/ptr IncompleteObject``) in general since the compiler does
