Senthil Kumaran added the comment:

I agree with the comment made by Oren. Not all instances of finder should be 
referenced as generic finder. Some classes and functions are are still PEP 302 
specific finder.

In the commit, 3987667bf98f Nick Coghlan modified the following functions to to 
use importlib module, thus serving the PEP 302 bind. So these can refer to 
glossary entry for finder. The documentation has been updated with version 
changed information.

* get_importer (by the underlying change of using only sys.path_importer_cache 
and removing the use of ImpImporter)
* iter_importers (by using importlib.import_module)

The glossary entry for both finder and loader has been updated to include both 
PEP 302 finder, and with PEP 420 and PEP 451.

With these changes already in place, I updated the patch to reflect the current 
state. 

I am proceed with the commit as this is a non-controversial change. If there 
are comments, please share and I will address them.
