 it would be nice if ipython could offer tab completion when the user wants
 to import packages. Two reasons:
 1. it is easier for novices to get familiar with the package tree
 2. it saves typing

 f.e.:

 from xml.dom.ext.reader import Sax2
 (which admittedly has rather short package and sub[..]package names.. ;-)
