  --- problem ----
  a Sikuli script xml.sikuli found on sys.path "hides" the Python module
+ 
+ users should obey the rule:
+ A Sikuli script, that can be found on sys.path at runtime, should not be named like a Python module, that is to be imported in the same script run.
  -----------------------------------------------------------------------
  
  with a simple script like
  
  from xml.dom import minidom
  
  I get the following error
  
  File "/Users/colej/Documents/xml.sikuli/xml.py", line 1, in <module>
      from xml.dom import minidom
  ImportError: No module named dom !!WHILE IMPORTING!!
  
  I did not find any method, to get minidom imported to use the
  minidom.parse... options.

** Summary changed:

- [1.0] Problems importing xml.dom.minidom in script running mode
+ [1.0] some_name.sikuli hides a Python module some_name at import and gives weird errors
