No, I cant change permission or delete the module, the best would be
something to detect 'import os' in user code .. but If i go with chroot
jail approch then everything will be like what i want. But chroot jail
approch would take much space on webserver, what would happen if number
of users are large.

Its having the same problem. The idea on which i am working is a
webide(which i already created) and a user file system(on which i am
working now) so that each user can access python globally and files
from his own folder, without adding them in unix user list. 

Best!
