Nick Coghlan <ncogh...@gmail.com> added the comment:

This feature is unnecessary now that PEP 3147 has been adopted. The way it 
works in 3.2+ is that orphaned bytecode files inside __pycache__ are always 
ignored, while bytecode files that live directly in the source directories are 
always imported.

This handles both use cases nicely:
- the implicitly created cache files are ignored if their source file has been 
deleted
- bytecode only distribution is still supported by explicitly installing 
bytecode files instead of source files
