Other than relative imports, the only other thing I occasionally miss in Python's import semantics is the fact that more than one file system space can't be mapped into one package namespace without trickery.

Didn't Guido write a 'pkgutil' module for this? Or am I confusing what he wrote with what you want? :)
He did! I totally spaced on that. Okay, Python packages are more close to perfect than I thought. :) Maybe, though, it's time to get rid of this warning from http://www.python.org/doc/current/lib/module-pkgutil.html Warning: This is an experimental module. It may be withdrawn or completely changed up to an including the release of Python 2.3 beta 1. :) -Barry
