It is possible in the 5.1 package model, but you still
have to know what you're doing:
in file os/ex.lua (or where-ever):
 -- make sure that "os" is loaded first, otherwise
 -- subsequent require("os") calls would only return our
 -- extension set...
 require "os"
 -- now use the same table as package "os"
 module "os"
 -- all your os.ex stuff goes here...
 -- don't forget to return our own module table or subsequent
 -- require("os.ex") calls will simply return true...
 return _M
Both Diego Nehab and myself have proposed alternatives for this (no
need to actually require "os" first nor to return the module table.)
Maybe this sort of thing is just not common enough (or poor practice,
like you said?)
