These are two different concepts. Sure, they share similarities (i.e.
stack based operations), and indeed I've based much of the F-Curve
Modifier code on the constraint code. However, whereas Constraints are
limited to matrix-based operations INVOLVING DEPENDENCIES at the end of
the evaluation flow, F-Curve Modifiers can operate on ANY property (be
it transforms, material or lighting properties) but MUST NOT INVOLVE
DEPENDENCIES as they're evaluated at the start of the evaluation
process when absolutely no dependencies can be taken into account. For
that kind of low-level dependencies, you'd want to use Drivers not
F-Curve Modifiers.<br>
<br>
Hopefully that clarifies your question :)<br>

constraints and modifiers together, either as just constraints or just
modifiers. This would give a unified manner of affecting f-curves
rather than two.<br>

If this is already the case just ignore me :)<br>
