I did find it interesting that we don't explicitly advise against the use of "import *" for anything other than optional accelerator modules or republishing internal interfaces through a public API, even though we advice against the practice in the tutorial. Perhaps another oversight worth correcting?
+1. 'from foo import *' (from any source other than another module in the same package) is a code stench far worse than anything else PEP8 proscribes.
