Who's going to call sys.register_importer()?

What does "current iterated path" mean?

How do I create a ZIP-only distribution?

Do I need to restructure my code to use custom importers, or am
I missing something?  If I want to ship multiple ZIP archives, do I
really have to name each one of them __init__.zip and place each
one in a different directory?

Have you tried Just's patch?

What problem does your solution solve that his code doesn't already
handle?

Etc.
