Nick Coghlan added the comment:

Something to consider with these functions: it is probably desirable to also 
support the popular alternate notation which uses an explicit ":" to separate 
the module name from the reference within the module.

For example, setuptools entry points and nose test references both use that 
format.

The alternate notation should be fairly easy to both detect and handle through 
"name.partition(':')"
