For the directory-as-module-not-package idea ...
you would need to be very careful with it,
since all the files would be sharing a common globals() namespace.
One of the things I like about Python's module system
is that once I know which module a name was imported
from, I also know which file to look in for its
definition. If a module can be spread over several
files, that feature would be lost.

*break* :)
Right. It would require additional pieces as well.
