3. decide it really should have been mybar.py

I suppose you are doing 'mv myfoo.py mybar.py' here ...

4. delete myfoo.py

... then this should be 'rm myfoo.py*' to get rid off the
old PYC files.

Indeed...
5. run unit tests to make sure you've fixed all import statements

That's a weird way to check your code. You should really
do a grep on the sources to see whether any references
to the 'myfoo' module are still left.

Nah, that just means you're too lazy to get decent test coverage ;-)

code quality or to find hidden imports, unless you have 100%
code coverage and are able to test all possible combinations
of execution paths, which is unlikely :-)

Actually, no. Code coverage by unit tests on projects I work with is pretty high...

7. get errors on fresh checkout because unit tests were using mybar.pyc

I still have a feeling that your trying to work around developer
laziness here ;-)

Agreed. I always use -k to the testrunner, but I'm just explaining why people are having the problems they are...
