Ok great, I indeed just tried, I might just have been confused last time! Maybe you could mention in the doc that a module can be a "package"? (Even though I suppose a package is also a module, I always find the Python terminology a bit confusing there.)

I always used to think of it as a module is a file `example.py`, a package is a directory `example` with a module `__init__.py`.
