Suggested usage: from stat import * """
Is ths still the suggested usage?
I don't see why not.
Because it flies in the face of the usual advice, which is never to use import *. How are we supposed to convince impressionable newbies to stay away from the evil drug of import * if the docs for one of the standard modules is brazenly advocating its use?
