Ahmet Altay commented on BEAM-2156:
-----------------------------------

One idea is to have an internal api to check for some extra features and 
optionally import stuff based on the available features.

> Clean up import guards for GCP libraries in the python SDK

> For protecting against environments that do not have gcp libraries installed 
> we have import guards like 
> https://github.com/apache/beam/blob/master/sdks/python/apache_beam/io/gcp/datastore/v1/helper.py#L21
