I'll have to check that out. It looks like it would work fine for my purposes since I normally run from virtual envs, but could be restrictive in that the user site-packages isn't added. I also found some other mentions of this: https://bugs.python.org/issue33053https://bugs.python.org/issue13475 One idea may be, when executing "python -m", check to see if the module is loaded from CWD, if so then have CWD added, but if the module is not loaded from CWD then not have it added.

When running as a module "python -m", it looks like an empty string gets added to sys.path, which appears to result in CWD being used. Are you familiar with the -I option for "isolated mode"? https://docs.python.org/3/using/cmdline.html#id2 -I Run Python in isolated mode. This also implies -E and -s. In isolated mode sys.path contains neither the script’s directory nor the user’s site-packages directory. All PYTHON* environment variables are ignored, too. Further restrictions may be imposed to prevent the user from injecting malicious code. New in version 3.4.
