Kernel#require accepting multiple arguments?

What is the reason that Kernel#require only accepts one filename? Implementing a version of `require' that can take multiple arguments is pretty easy:

  module Kernel
    alias_method :__require__, :require

    def require(*filenames)
      filenames.all? { |file| __require__(file) }
    end
  end


Cheers,
Daniel
