This is going to get interesting - I prefer coding in C++, but you code in
VB, which means calling C++ dlls from VB (if I'm to do any modules, that
is!)

You could always say "VB only!" of course, but it does seem
fairly
straighforward to make C++ dlls callable from VB.  It would be very decent
of you if you could allow it (maybe the module definition includes the
language of the dll)

Here's a link to an article on calling C++ dlls from VB apps - it doesn't
look difficult from the C++ end, but you are better placed to tell whether
the VB side of things is much different from dealing with a regular VB dll.
