My personal opinion is that we should be trying to get the standard
library to the point where __all__ definitions are unnecessary - if a
name isn't in __all__, it should start with an underscore (and if that
is true, then the __all__ definition becomes effectively redundant).

What about names imported from other modules that are used by
the module, but not intended for re-export? How would you
prevent them from turning up in help() etc. without using
__all__?
