I guess I'm wrong about this.  I just tried adding 

class Node:
    pass

To Ft/Dom/__init__.py and expected everything to break, but all was well.  It 
seems that at least Python 2.0 is clever when the same import can be made as a 
package and an object.  Is this also the casde with Python 1.5.2?

Given this, I guess it does make sense to move a base Node class to the 
__init__.py
