If we had relative imports for scripts as well as package modules,
that would be the end of it.
When the relative import escapes the current package (or module) start
using filesystem semantics, where another dot means a parent
directory, and something that looks like a package is just a
directory. This replaces the "relative import from non-package" error,
so backward-compatibility is a non-issue.
bin/parrot/speak.py:
def say(text):
print text
bin/parrot/mccaw.py
#this is a script, not a module!
from ..speak import say
bin/guy/__init__.py
from ..parrot.speak import say
