Now, this is all IMHO: the style guide does not define any 'guidelines'
on this, except that its okay to use "from ... import ..." to pull in

once.
What do you mean by "(implicitly) constants"?
Quote, PEP-8:
- Imports should usually be on separate lines, e.g.:
Yes: import os
import sys
No: import sys, os
it's okay to say this though:
from subprocess import Popen, PIPE
It explicitly states later its entirely OK to import classes. It never
says anything else directly, except in the example given, it shows you
importing a constant. So, its giving implicit approval to that without
really directly saying anything about it.
Thanks for the clarification -- I was reading it as constants being
implicitly imported, and I knew that wasn't so! ;)
