Placeholder issue for discussion of the design of the implementation of PEP 553.

Will that be backported also to Python2.7 ? I personally do not see a reason to teach old dog new tricks but it seems appropriate in such core things. New users could transition easier, otherwise this would be next py2<->py3 difference to explain every time someone uses new code.

It is a new feature, so no it would not be backported.

PEP is accepted.  PR needs review.

Is it needed to specify the fromlist argument for PyImport_ImportModuleLevelObject()? The only effect of this is that Python will try to import the hook as a submodule if it is not an attribute of the parent module. But I think that callable modules is very uncommon case and we should not support is specially. Getting rid of the fromlist argument will simplify the code.

It's a convenient API.  I think originally I may have just don't effectively a getattr on the imported module, but I don't remember (and don't have original implementation handy - thanks, rebase!)

I don't have particularly strong feelings on the matter.  If you want to submit a PR, I'll take a look.  I suppose technically it *is* a functional change that might not be acceptable now that 3.7.0 is released though.
