 The control.c module accesses, and is accessed by, many other modules: it
 represents a failure of modularity and layering.

 Instead, we should give control.c only the responsibility of marshalling
 and unmarshalling messages for the controller, and give individual modules
 the responsibility for publishing events and handling commands.
