It has been a problem for me at least once. I blew a good chunk of a day debugging a problem that turned out due to my clobbering something in the socket module because of a name collision. It's not that frequent an occurrence in the scheme of things, but IMO it would be nicer if modules and classes could be explicit about what they imported and exported. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
