Good points. The analysis can be simple at first and then we can enhance it to be smarter about what is okay and still lazy load. We may evolve it over time too, making things that are not strictly safe still not trigger the "industrious" load lazy anyhow. Another idea is to introduce __lazy__ or some such in the global namespace of the module, if present, e.g. __lazy__ = True then the analysis doesn't do anything except return True. The module has explicitly stated that side-effects in the top-level code are okay to be done in a lazy fashion. Perhaps with a little bit of smarts in the analsis and a little sprinkling of __lazy__ flags, we can get a big chunk of modules to lazy load. _______________________________________________ Python-ideas mailing list Python-ideas@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-ideas Code of Conduct: http://python.org/psf/codeofconduct/
