I don't agree with this. Until it's documented, it's an implementation
detail and should be able to change without notice.
If it's an implementation detail, shouldn't it be named as one (i.e.
with a leading underscore)?
If someone wants to depend on some undocumented detail of the
directory layout it's their problem (like people depending on bytecode
and other stuff).
I would say that names without a single leading underscore are part of
the public API, whether documented or not.
And if that isn't the rule, then what the heck is?
