[issue14938] 'import my_pkg.__init__' creates duplicate modules

[Ronan Lamy]

Ronan Lamy <ronan.lamy at gmail.com> added the comment:

That would force the Loaders to know how to convert a module name into a file path, which isn't the case now since FileLoader.get_filename() is just a shim that returns self.path. So I'd rather add an optional argument to FileLoader. Actually, I feel that the clean solution would be to have packages be a separate Loader class, but that would be a significant change...
