to do
/////

* Create sandbox directory for a distutils packaging of what is in Python 2.7.

* Use rpartition for getting the package of a module.

    + Make sure that an empty string is acceptable for __package__.

* Create meta_path importer for sys.path.

    + Document.

* Refactor __import__.

    + Create a greatest common denominator function for __import__/import_module
      that takes in an absolute module name and performs the import.
    + Use GCD import for __import__.
    + Use GCD import for import_module.

* Implement PEP 302 protocol for loaders (should just be a matter of testing).

    + Built-in.
    + Frozen.
    + Extension.
    + Source/bytecode.

* Public API left to expose (w/ docs!)

* Write benchmark suite.

* OPTIMIZE!

  + Fast path absolute name.
  + Fast path pulling from sys.modules.

* Bootstrap importlib as implementation of builtins.__import__

* Replace standard library modules.
