[PEP] TL;DR

From the initial idea I got that now we have to have the word lazy 
scattered all over the place for every module that needs to be loaded in 
such a manner:

lazy import blah
lazy import whatever
lazy from thisorthat import meh


Wouldn't it have been better if they used, e.g. "with" as a starter? Like 
so:

with lazy:
    import blah
    import whatever
    from thisorthat import meh

Then it would have been much smoother to handle.

My 2¢ worth...
