I don't know. Whether a warning is a problem is a matter of attitude, also. Our users will think our applications are broken if they see warnings like that. It is not professional.

Actually, your application was pretty close to being broken a few weeks ago, when Guido wanted to drop the requirement that a package must contain an init file. In that case, "import math" would have imported the directory, and given you an empty package.
