--------------------------------------+--------------------
The FlatPageSitemap currently exists within the 'core'
`django.contrib.sitemaps` namespace, though it's specific to
`django.contrib.flatpages`. Given a number of modules and moves have
happened recently, I'm floating the idea of:
* Moving `FlatPageSitemap` to `django.contrib.flatpages.sitemaps`, which
would better reflect it's dependencies (though it still has one to
`django.contrib.sites`), and is more inline with how sitemaps would be
packaged in third-party apps (and would allow spinning out flatpages to an
external app with less work, if ever desired)
* Raising a deprecation warning for a release, if importing from the old
namespace (like the ContentTypes move and form.util moves)
The documentation currently says ''The sitemap framework provides a couple
convenience classes for common cases'', and I'd argue that flatpages isn't
all *that* common, these days, though it may have been in the past (before
richer packages either built on it or supplanted it, because the ecosystem
was smaller)
