Remote imports for Python?

It could potentially cut out pip from the loop yes, but how hard is a "pip install" anyway?
We are not talking about simplifying something that is currently complex, we are talking about shaving of a few minutes at max in their workflow.
So why should we need yet another way to do the same thing in a slightly less secure manner?

Personally i see this httpimport as a great library, but I don't see much reason to add it to the python standard library.
There's probably more people afraid of the security of python than who wants this feature, so adding it to the python standard library doesn't make sense.
