Great question. I haven't looked at how 2.4 handles them, but the need for a single autoloader is critical for this to work moving forward. I have one branch of the code here where I'm attempting to make Repoman into a Composer plugin so that the standard "composer install" and "composer update" will read through the required packages and install them into MODX, but it's tricky and that approach may not be compatible with whatever approach was used in 2.4 -- I did reach out to several of the team members but never heard much back, so I fear that the approaches may not be compatible.
