Another random cleanup idea:

ElementTree.py has this code:

try:
    from . import ElementPath
except ImportError:
    ElementPath = _SimpleElementPath()

Since in the stdlib ElementPath.py is always there, this is meaningless, so I'd say this try... except ImportError contraption can be removed, as well as _SimpleElementPath, and just replaced by:

from . import ElementPath
