Okay, I've been convinced that keeping the dynamic path feature is a
good idea. I am really looking forward to seeing the rationale added
to the PEP -- that's pretty much the last thing on my list that made
me hesitate. I'll leave the details of exactly how the parent path is
referenced up to the implementation team (several good points were
made), as long as the restriction that sys.path must be modified in
place is lifted.
