I change 'enhance' to 'add' because there is no 'import completion' now.

Ramchandra, when replying by email, delete the quoted email.  But do submit a patch even is less than perfect.

The idea of autoimporting a name to complete an attribute is separate from the idea of doing something special in import statements.  Autoimport is the subject of #18766, which has a patch and my thoughts so far.  So this issue is only about import statements.

Martin, I just opened #27609 as an umbrella issue for multiple completion issues.  I am not happy with the current IDLE completion code.  Does any of the readline completion code depend on function provided by readline, or is it all an extension of readline, using logic in Python?
