    We want his module to load pretty early in the process
    of starting the app, so that people.js can load early.
    All the heavy lifting for reload logic happens in
    reload.js, which has lots of UI dependencies.  If we
    didn't split out this module, our whole dependency tree
    would be kind of upside down.
