Serhiy proposed a relatively minor change to the behavior of `import *` in the absence of __all__. This sounds like an idea we could try though we should have a look at the implications for various well-known packages. It is also a relatively minor problem that he's trying to solve, so it's not worth breaking lots of stuff over. (We can just add an __all__ to Tkinter that contains the desired list.)
Anders then stole Serhiy's thread to advocate fora much more radical idea. That's not good netiquette. That idea is going to break a lot more code than Serhiy's. But my key message here is to Anders: stay on topic or start a new thread. You're welcome to discuss your idea in a separate thread. But don't steal existing threads. -- --Guido van Rossum (python.org/~guido) *Pronouns: he/him/his **(why is my pronoun here?)* <http://feministing.com/2015/02/03/how-using-they-as-a-singular-pronoun-can-change-the-world/>
