Maybe things like this should be posted in the forums in the future. I
don't think anybody reads this list..

IMO creating a new module like this is a really bad idea. Since you have
renamed the module to "requests2", everything that use it will be
incompatible for use outside of xbmc. And the other way around: if you want
to use other modules that depend on requests, you have to either modify
them to import "requests2" be stuck with v1 forever.

Last time, you updated the module from v0.x to v1.x, which as far as I know
had far more API changes requiring several add-ons to be updated
simultaneously. I don't see why it would be harder this time.
