New submission from Brett Cannon:
To make using importlib.find_loader() easier, there should be a flag that says
to automatically import all parent packages for the desired submodule so as to
not force the user to do it::
def find_loader(name, path=None, *, load_parents=False): ...
That way people who are okay with loading some packages implicitly to get at a
specific loader can do so without having to do boilerplate name.split('.');
import each parent code. Also means people don't have to worry about the path
argument (unless they explicitly want to trigger loading from a different
location).
