Senthil Kumaran <sent...@uthcode.com> added the comment:

I vaguely recollect the reason for this. It was done with the translation of 
Python2 code (which had urllib, urllib2, and urlparse, robotparser) etc, 
combined into a single package. We wanted to keep the import as urllib.request 
and urllib.response, and urllib.parse

That said. If there is no other request currently open for this. Let's keep 
this, and am +1 to this suggestion. We have to think if there are any potential 
drawbacks for the old code which is already using 2nd level import.
