[PyKDE] from qt import *

[Eron Lloyd]

I doubt that it will be deprecated any time soon. Although it can be used to 
pollute the namespace unnecessarily, it is quite handy in _many_ situations. 
Plus, with the ability to explicitly decide what objects are exposed using 
either an __all__ list or individual _<<object>> assignment naming, the 
flexibility is there to promote good manners when importing. I don't see a 
real good reason why they could (easily) pull this from the language.
