Brett Cannon <br...@python.org> added the comment:

To make the proposal concrete, would you then change 
https://github.com/python/cpython/blob/master/Lib/importlib/_bootstrap_external.py#L785
 to include a `source_mtime != int(time.time())` guard? I think as long as 
that's the last check in the guard since that has they highest performance cost 
it should be okay (I don't think any platform makes calling the clock an 
expensive operation).

And nothing personal about pro-actively closing this, Devin, but with over 6000 
issues in this issue tracker alone it's easier to ask forgiveness than 
permission when it comes to issues that at the outset don't look like a good 
idea. Otherwise I would have to track this issue personally in case you never 
responded again (which does happen), and that just becomes a maintenance burden 
on me when I have 3 other Python-related projects that I'm also actively 
working on issues with (ignoring any issues that I get involved with on this 
tracker).
