In the above, please replace "understand the decision" by "understand the 
usefulness of it".

In the above discussion, as an alternative to a new exception, it was proposed 
to add an attribute to ImportError ('reason'), but then people seemed to agree 
that this is quite useless outside of importlib (msg192261).  But then I don't 
understand why the original idea of the exception was revived.
