I was just looking for some csv DictWriter examples for a colleague at work
and was myself confused by the apparent transformation which took place in
the Reader Objects and Writer Objects sections.  Each of the methods is now
prefixed by "csv.csvreader." or "csv.csvwriter."  Neither expression was
previously defined in that section.

Those undefined expressions are not in the old versions of the
documentation, e.g.:

    http://www.python.org/doc/2.4.4/lib/node634.html
    http://www.python.org/doc/2.4.4/lib/node635.html
    http://www.python.org/doc/2.5/lib/node265.html
    http://www.python.org/doc/2.5/lib/node266.html

I don't think they add anything useful to the documentation.  Were they
added just for the csv module (and possibly a few others) or was this a
change to the entire libref documentation?  That is, was this some sort of
policy change?  Can they be removed?
