I never got the sys.modules deleting approach to work (tried it about a year ago in python 2.6). As far as I understand you’re not supposed to delete imported modules. That’s not how Python is designed to work.
Instead I just always (yes, always) import modules with a reload() as well: import myModule reload(myModule) Then I make sure to always delete the UIs (and dockControls in Maya) properly before loading up the UI. This makes it possible to reload the whole pyqt/pyside app without issues and without having to restart Maya/Nuke. Example of this in Maya/Nuke here <https://github.com/fredrikaverpil/pyVFX-boilerplate/blob/master/boilerplate.py> .
