Eric Firing and I discussed this extensively off list over the weekend -- we tried a bunch of things (eg the Importer and Namespace classes) and I was using svn as a testing lab, fully aware that this may not be the right final solution, but the code worked and was easily changed. In the end, we decided not to do it, favoring instead the simple from matplotlib import cbook # unlikely clash, use module name as is from matplotlib import lines as mlines # add m prefix to avoid likely clash I just haven't fixed the code yet.
