Comment (by Benjy Weinberger):

 Re the use case:

 It seems unnecessary to insist on an empty `__init__.py` just to preserve
 a (stale) check for `__file__`, when they are otherwise not required in
 Python 3.

 And https://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/29091 implies that this should
 be allowed.

 Context is: We've just finished migrating our codebase to all-python 3,
 and nuked all our `__init__py` files. We are now upgrading to Django 2.1,
 and noticing the various places where they're still de-facto required by
 Django. This particular case seemed unnecessary and easy to fix.
