If you're using an IDE, or even taking the traditional text editor and console approach, I guess you wouldn't really need things like import hooks/hacks to get where you want to go. Still, they might come in handy for interactive work. In the context of an import hook, uploading files wouldn't appear to make much sense, but it reminds me of the SAVE command I used to use in BASIC. It was more useful when programs were developed interactively as listings at the command line, but I notice that ipython has a save command, even if it does something quite different. A save command (export hook?) that pickled and uploaded user-created objects to a remote server might be useful in certain situations.
