Actually Cython would help with a subtle maintenance burden of maintaining any C code for import. Right now, Python/import.c:PyImportImportModuleLevelObject() is an accelerated C version of importlib.import() through checking sys.modules, after which it calls into the Python code. Cython would do away with that C acceleration code (which I have already had to modify once and Antoine found a couple refleaks in).
Would it? That's assuming Cython would be smart enough to do the required optimizations.
