I prematurely hit send, I don't mean to suggest remove the attribute name, just to add the module path [maybe the full path, whatever's in __file__ would be easiest]. This way wouldn't even require detecting circular imports or shadowing specifically, though it would require a little bit more alertness on the part of the user to notice that the path is not the system module they expect. this could be done in combination with a warning or additional text detecting shadowing as suggested in my previous post. _______________________________________________ Python-ideas mailing list -- python-ideas@python.org To unsubscribe send an email to python-ideas-le...@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman3/lists/python-ideas.python.org/ Message archived at https://mail.python.org/archives/list/python-ideas@python.org/message/UJKDGAJIIMNJYS2NYUNJ2XCAEFFLUTUC/ Code of Conduct: http://python.org/psf/codeofconduct/
