Replying to [comment:33 vbraun]:
> IHMO adding subdirectories of packages to sys.path is to be avoided as
it can cause confusion.
Sure, but I didn't put `argparse` there, which is unrelated to and
independent of all the other stuff there.

belong to this ticket.
But completely rewriting it (or changing its structure, and adding tests
etc.) does?
That's really completely unrelated to Python 2.6 support; if you're
referring to the title, all we need ''here'' is to pick up the `argparse`
module. And it's currently a blocker ticket.
I'd suggest to put your restructuring etc. on a follow-up, where we can
improve other things as well (to not say remove further regressions
introduced previously).
If the latter still makes it into Sage 7.3, fine, otherwise it doesn't
hurt because the main issue has already been fixed here -- quickly and
safe.
