This will cause Python to expect the name 'Authentication' to exist in 
the '__init__.py' file itself - which it won't unless that module 
imports it.

This is *very* different to having __all__ = ["Authentication"] in the 
module. Try it without the sys.path manipulation and I think you will 
find it still works.
