I had thought that was how the AlphaVantage key set in GC's preferences 
was handled. API keys and the desired currency rate module can be passed 
when invoking F::Q. However, that could mean that multiple api keys may 
need to be passed when using a quote source such as 'nyse' since 
multiple modules (and more than one with an API key required) can 
satisfy the quote requests.
