[New-bugs-announce] [issue15502] Meta path finders and path entry finders are different, but share an ABC

[Nick Coghlan]

New submission from Nick Coghlan:

In the review of #15295, Brett noted that the APIs of meta path finders and path entry finders have now diverged substantially thanks to PEP 420, thus it's rather dubious that they continue to share a single Finder ABC in importlib.
