I've been doing forks of modules and using replace to use them in my code base extensively. I had 0 problems, it works marvelously.

If you're doing some kind of global find/replace on fork, then something's definitely not right.

Yeah it works fine. It also allows local co-development of the module and its user without waiting for new versions to be noticed
yes that is one approach. it shouldn't be necessary.
