How about instead of "import FunctionUser", require
from FunctionUser import do_something
In FunctionUser.py, write:

Yes, this

Hmm, it's a pain that there's no clean way to get at the current
module. PEP 3130 shows some icky

Yes, its a compliment in disguise--just check his CV.

Am I missing something? It's likely that I just don't understand
the problem, but I don't understand these dictionary extractions
for what I thought would be an attribute lookup:

You sound like my former thesis adviser.
OK. From an external source, such as configuration file, the user will
specify the *name* of a function somehow with the assumption that the
