I'm not too familiar with rust, but isn't the linker supposed to look in
the store, not in your user profiler?  My understanding is that we
usually don't want to compose components dynamically like that, since it
causes problems (e.g., incomplete deployment due to "missing" stuff in
the user's profile).
