My expectation of this is that if onerrors is left as None, names

I would infer no such promise, especially as the generator also yields
modules, and no attempt at all is made to import those.
Really? I thought the __import__ fired over everything?
I've never worked with that function; I'd like to hear more about your
usecase.
It's becoming a common use case for packages like martian [1] and
venutian [2] that need to scan whole packages for things. In my case,
I'm scanning for declaratively mapped SQLAlchemy models.
It would be great if this function became part of the public API and got
some more definition on what it will and won't do. When should I take
this to Python-Dev?
cheers,
Chris
