Steve Dower <steve.do...@python.org> added the comment:

That was a *big* patch to importlib.resources... And newly defined and 
standardised protocols? That seems like a lot to bring in without having gone 
through a PEP anyway, despite the minor bug that has drawn attention to it.

I don't think backports should be treated as incubators for standard modules, 
getting new features that then flow directly into the stdlib. It's fine to have 
a fork for incubation, but people need to rely on consistency in stdlib and 
backports.

All that to say, I think we should revert the importlib changes *anyway*, and 
also because there's something wrong with them right now.
