Comment:
I don't think this will make anything clearer. Almost everywhere we call
`__import__`, it's only that single call. However, there are variations,
because sometimes the last component is {{{['']}}}, sometimes it's a non-
empty string in the list and sometimes it's {{{[]}}} (empty list). Each
has special and necessary significance. So you'd be replacing a one-line
call with a function call that takes more or less the same parameters --
net cost is an extra function call each time and you save having to type
two sets of empty braces.
