__missing__ is a dict method. I was merely noting it would make more sense to override that rather than __setitem__ to avoid slowing down normal lookups in sys.modules. However, I'll still advocate the simple approach (two entries) for now. Assuming uniqueness of values in a dictionary is invalid in general, so code assuming it for sys.modules is arguably already incorrect. Definitely a point deserving of more discussion in the PEP, though.
