That breaks if you move a third-party package to another directory or
another file name. More importantly, this kind of behavior is
different from similar existing Emacs mechanisms. For instance, when
you write define-minor-mode and defcustom statements, it does not
automagically :require the current load-file.
I really don't see why it's a problem having to separately specify the
requisite load-file.
