I would ask you to reconsider this. https://stackoverflow.com/questions/67631/how-to-import-a-module-given-the-full-path/67692#67692 is a highly active question on StackOverflow, and my answer basically provided me all the karma I got there. For users that don't have intimate insight in how importlib works, the code posted by Brett is completely non-obvious and I believe that a convenience method would be very useful.
