Patrick Maupin added the comment:

concurrent/futures/__init__.py may be a better example than 2to3 for this 
issue.  It's relatively new code, it's part of the standard library, it's 
fairly small and self-contained, and it doesn't follow the promulgated standard.

If it's bad code, it should be modified.  If it's not bad code, then the docs 
shouldn't denigrate the coding style (especially not to the extent of requiring 
absolute imports in standard library code), because a lot of newbies take the 
docs to heart and spend a lot of time and energy beating up themselves and 
others about conformance.
