I do not use ol-eww, so I do not have it in org-modules. The reason is

    #+begin_src sql

intended just to have a code example with syntax highlighting. It causes 
loading of sql.el that may call `thing-at-point-looking-at' from 
`sql-read-table-name'.

I have no idea concerning opinion of developers, but I would prefer to 
have loading of libraries like thingatpt on demand.
