I do agree that circular references should preferable be avoided.
In languages like Delphi, you get an error message, trying to use
circular references,
but solving them in large programs with a lot of history can be very
painful.
Now I finally (after 2 years) knowing there's a difference between
modules and scripts,
I want to guarantee that I always get the same functional behavior.
In Delphi terms, you have units (.pas) and programs (.dpr). You can't add
a .dpr to the Uses clause of an unit. In case you have some code in a .dpr
that you want to use somewhere else, you move it into a new unit and Use
it from both places.
Translated to Python terms: you have modules and scripts. You shouldn't
import a script from a module. In case you have some code in a script that
you want to use somewhere else, move it into a new module and import it
from both places.
Note the change between "can't" and "shouldn't". Delphi just won't let you
import the main program from another place; Python does, with strange
effects, but you should not do that. You can avoid the temptation by
naming your scripts with another extension (or no extension at all).
I found 2 solutions to realize the above.

Too much hassle and magic for what should be a non-issue.
