Brett Cannon <br...@python.org> added the comment:

Although now that I think about it, there is a slightly sticky situation of 
someone using '' or some name with a slash for a key in __dict__. The usage in 
fromlist would then be "reasonable", but the semantics would be somewhat odd as 
fromlist is really only needed to trigger other imports.

It's probably safe to still make it an error, although it shouldn't be 
special-cased just for slashes and spaces but specifically the logic triggering 
the double import.
