Comment:
I've played a bit around with the new 'import x as y' syntax and found it would be useful to be able to assign to module/class members, too.

Example from BaseHTTPServer:
  import SOCKS; socket = SOCKS; del SOCKS
  from socket import getfqdn; socket.getfqdn = getfqdn; del getfqdn

could become:
  import SOCKS as socket # nothing new here
  from socket import getfqdn as socket.getfqdn # NEW!

Assigned to Thomas for review.
