If I understand the proposal correctly, this would be a change in NamespaceLoader in how it sets __path__ and in no way affect any other code since __import__() just grabs the object on __path__ and passes as an argument to the meta path finders which just iterate over the object, so I have no objections to it.
That's not *quite* the proposal (but almost). The change would also mean that __import__() instead passes a ModulePath (aka Nick's LazyIterable) instance to the meta path finders, which just iterate over it. But other than that, yes.
