OK, I just noticed that importlib.find_spec copies the annoying-as-hell behaviour of importlib.find_loader where it doesn't work with dotted names. Can we fix that please? It's stupid that pkgutil.get_loader has to exist to workaround that design flaw for find_loader, and I'd hate to see it replicated in a new public facing API.
