Maybe it is just me, because I read the original issue. But Gregory's
message looks to me well organized and answering questions that were
asked before and possible new questions.
Here is an example. File "foo/__init__.py" contains "class A: pass".
>>> from foo.__init__ import A
>>> import foo
>>> isinstance(A(), foo.A)
False
And this happens not only with classes. Modules foo and foo.__init__ has
similar content, but their values are not the same. Some values can be
identical, some are identical on some Python implementations and
non-identical on others, some are equal but non-identical, some are not
even equal.

Since __init__ is a special name and directory __init__ conflicts with
file __init__.py, I do not think this is good idea. I am not even sure
that it works. I do not think this is necessary, but just for the case
it may be better to forbid intermediate __init__ components as well. But
it depends on the implementation. What will look more natural.
