One question here, I guess - does the importlib integration do anything to make writing on-demand import mechanisms easier (I'd suspect not, but you never know...) If it did, then performance issues might be somewhat less of a sticking point, as usual depending on use cases.

It might even be a feature-win if a standard on-demand import mechanism could be added on top of importlib so all these projects wouldn't have to roll their own.
