Yes - it doesn't solve or address the recursive import problem.  My 
impression was that Tom was making a user interface assertion that doing:

import matplotlib as mpl

would be simpler for people than doing:

from matplotlib import mpl

of course I could be complete wrong as well :)

I think the basic idea is that if I want to use MPL, I should import 
it and go and I should not have to import a sub-module out of MPL as 
the main API.
