there's nothing imaginary here -- cElementTree is an existing and quite popular
module, and will remain available as a separate distribution.

it would be nice if people could install that kit also under 2.5 without risking to
mess up their Python installation.

(another solution would of course to rule out use of cElementTree by modules
shipped with Python...)
