Python provides no support for an extension module being a 
package parent module. More precisely, I think the fact that 
an extension module can be made to behave like a package 
parent module is an accident. There is special code in import 
for modules named __init__, and the code is bypassed for 
extension modules.

I suspect you'd have to provide a pretty strong justification 
before this would become supported behavior.
