OK, but nobody have questioned about removing 'from something import *' just to help noobs...
I'm not advocating removing it from the language, far from it. I agree there are legitimate uses for it in rare cases.
I just wish that people wouldn't use it in tutorials, where it's the first thing the newcomer will see, and get the impression that it's the normal thing to do.
