There are plenty of situations where large projects may decide to define project wide builtins, in order to save having to explicitly import a frequently used function in every single module. Please consider adding support for a user specified list of builtin names to ignore, either via a command line argument or an environment variable.

Status in Pyflakes: Won't Fix Bug description: gettext module provides convenience function gettext.install() that injects a callable _ [single underscore] into builtins, so that internationalized code can be written like this: print _("text") pyflakes reports every _ as undefined symbol. moreover since it is injected in builtins, all imported modules have that symbol, thus the following works: # main.py import gettext import somemod gettext.install(...) #somemod.py print _("text") I'm not sure what sort of heuristic could be used to recognize _() when pyflake checks somemod.py. Perhaps a command line argument for extra builtins?
