In zipimport.c, function get_data(), the zip file is opened using fopen() and read with CLib functions. Did anyone ever consider making it possible to read the zipped data from a generic file object and not just using a string path? Using StringIO, This would allow a higher degree of python embedding in an application. I would be able to have a zip file in memory and make python read modules from it.
