An open question remains on whether to deprecate cElementTree, now that
this change is in place.

Currently in 3.3 the whole cElementTree module is:

  # Deprecated alias for xml.etree.ElementTree

  from xml.etree.ElementTree import *

Would it be alright to issue a DeprecationWarning if this module is
imported? Then hopefully a couple of releases after 3.3 we can just dump it.
