OK, I am writing an alternative for the threading module. What I would

For instance there is the logging module, it can log the thread name. So
I would like to know how I can get the logging module to call the
function from my module to get the current_thread, instead of it calling
"current_thread" from the threading module.
Easy: make sure your module is called "threading.py" and is earlier in
the path than the standard library. In fact, it's so easy that people
do it unintentionally all the time... Generally, the current directory
(or the script directory) is the first entry in sys.path, so that's a
good place to put it.

Well I had hope for a somewhat more selective solution. The intention is
to have a number of modules collected in a package where this module is
one of and the package is available via the "installed" search path.

So the programmer should just be able to choose to write his code with
either:

    from threading import Thread

or

    from QYZlib.threaders import Thread
