ok, let me try this again, sans distractions:
could we consider adding __code__ and __call__ to module objects?
__code__ would contain the code executed in the module __dict__, and __call__ would reload the module.
thoughts?
The question to ask is: what would such a change make possible that importlib doesn't already handle?
I suppose module.__code__ would be a lot less wasteful than module.__loader__.get_code(module.__name__) (which seems to reload the bytecode from disk every time). (while looking at this, I was surprised that dis.dis(some_module) 1) doesn't show a disassembly for the module toplevel 2) shows disassembly for objects which some_module imports from other modules) Regards Antoine.
