I agreed with Neil that the embedded tuple was better than my first proposal, an embedded dictionary. Neither seemed more magical or implicit than the other to me. That being said, we could make it really explicit, thus: _q_exports = ["foo", "bar", {"external":"foo.bar", "internal": "foo_bar"} ] The merit of this version -- setting aside its verbosity -- is that it should help us discriminate between worries about implicitness and worries motivated by something else.
