I am willing to compromise to module_to_initialize, module_to_init, or module_to_load. Pick one. =)
I see this as *really* similar to a database transaction, and those start with "session.begin()".
Could you tolerate "with begin_module_init(name) as m:"?
But for a transaction, it is 'with session', not 'with begin_session'. With 'begin_module_init' I would have no idea what 'm' was. With Brett's 'module_to_init' I have an intuitive idea about what 'm' is. And if 'm' isn't a module, then module_manager would be better. (Note that I haven't grokked what Brett's context manager is actually doing/returning, I'm speaking here as an ignorant reader of someone else's code :)
We could even document the ability to check m.__initializing__ to see whether this is a reload() or not.
Cheers, Nick.
