Maybe it's better to leave it open, waiting for someone to pick it up,
even if this is some time in the future?

In my opinion, this is suprising behaviour without an actual rationale,
and a current implementation feature.  I'd be a pitty for me to see it
becoming an official part of the language.

What bothers me most is that

    from . import moduleX

doesn't work but

    import package.moduleX

does work.  So the circular import itself works without problems,
however, not with a handy identifier.  This is would be an odd
asymmetry, I think.
