Subject: module private methods?

Hello,

I guess the subject is silly - but since I need something like Java's
"package private" I have used a similar name.

What I would need is an additional access modifier, something like this:

Module Foo
  class Bar
    #public methods
    baz()
    fluff()
  module_private
    ork()
  private
    crap()
  end
end

baz() and fluff() are public as normally, crap() is private as normally.
ork() is "module private" which means it is visible to the caller only
if the caller is *also* in the module Foo - otherwise not.

Can this behavior achieved somehow easily?

TIA,
Peter
