[New-bugs-announce] [issue46902] Typo hint message for from-imports?

[Jean Abou Samra]

New submission from Jean Abou Samra <jean at abou-samra.fr>:

See for example:

>>> from pygments.regexopt import regexopt
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
ImportError: cannot import name 'regexopt' from 'pygments.regexopt' (/home/jean/repos/pygments/pygments/regexopt.py)
>>> from pygments.regexopt import regex_opt
>>> regexopt
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
NameError: name 'regexopt' is not defined. Did you mean: 'regex_opt'?

In Python 3.10, there is a nice helpful error message suggesting
how to correct the typo for NameError and AttributeError. Would
it be possible to have the same for ImportError with 'from import'?
