But this addition to the PEP 302 protocols is very specific to runpy and is not directly required to make imports work (the implementation was just a reshuffling of pre-existing code from one method to another). I am tempted to leave the ABC out of importlib and stop at implementing get_filename() for importlib.abc.PyLoader and PyPycLoader.
I am not sure when this discussion started. Are you replying to a 3 month-old message of yours? :) In any case, keeping all import-related ABCs in a single place sounds like a good idea. Alternatively, if the method is runpy specific, it doesn't have its place in an ABC, does it?
