I disagree that there should be a yt.pmods. I think we should try to
keep it such that a script that works in serial works in parallel.
Obviously, yt.pmods could be made to fall back to serial mode, but I
mean that scripts shouldn't have to be modified, if at all possible,
to go from serial to parallel.
