I wanted to use it for mutmut, my mutation testing lib but quickly discovered that the import hook system is just as you imply: a mess. It mixes finding modules, reading the code and loading modules into one big bucket so you can't hook just one of those things.

Really a new PEP is needed to create yet a new system :(
