This patch adds a few commands to help managing import statements in
Python projects. (I submitted equivalent code some time ago as a
potential ELPA package, and it was noted that this fits better in
python.el itself.)
This patch should be applied after the patch of bug#56997, since it
requires, in a rather substantial way, the project dependency.
I also had to introduce a new `python-interpreter' defcustom. Here are
two observations:
1) Its default value should perhaps coincide with that of
`python-shell-interpreter'. But I disagree of the logic used there to
pick python3 if present. There are only two reasons why `python'
should point to the python2 interpreter:
a. The user is working on a legacy project and carefully set the
python executable to point to a python2 interpreter.
b. The user's OS is woefully misconfigured.
We should have a default that works with case a. instead of one that
tries to fix case b.
2) For extra consistency, it might be better to have
python-shell-interpreter be nil by default, and use
(or python-shell-interpreter python-interpreter)
when starting a shell. But this would be a minor improvement that
might break third-party code.

Description: Text Data
PS: Wouldn't it be handy also in other places to have a macro that
creates a temp buffer but doesn't switch to it? Maybe with signature
(with-temp-buffers (NAMES &rest BODY)).
