New submission from Rob Bairos <rbai...@gmail.com>:
When adding hooks to sys.meta_path, to correctly deal with arbitrarily named
non-disk module definitions, module names with slashes should still be
processed.
As it stands when executing statements such as:
import my_module_123#/123
or
even
__import__('my_module_123#/123')
the following exception is raised:
ImportError: Import by filename is not supported.
This stops sys.meta_path from handling arbitrarily named modules.
Shouldn't the ImportError be raised *after* the meta_path processing, at which
point, its safe to assume the name is a disk name, in which case slashes are
relevant?
