Either that or a permission or something, which would be more flexible.
Could something similar be added to so something like:
'I trust this user to only import sensible modules'
...so that we don't have to go through pain every time someone needs access to a
standard python module (like re for example ;-)

Yeahright! ;-)

It does strike me that with a couple more permissions, you could eliminate the
need for external methods here...
