That is actually a private attribute of urllib (not urllib2) module present from the very first version. It is intended strictly for overriding purposes not for anything else. During the merge in py3k, it has taken its place in urllib.request. I see no harm in it being there. If it needs to be un-advertised, perhaps we can remove its reference from the docs.
