Python's "only one way to do it" philosophy isn't good?

I don't see why that *shouldn't* work.  Or "from macrolib1 import
keyword as foo".  And to be truly Pythonic the keywords would have to
be scoped like normal Python variables.  One problem is that such a
system wouldn't be able to redefine existing keywords.

Lets wait for a concrete proposal before delving into this rats'
cauldron any further.
