Thank you for echoing my premise - H301 exists, but there are exceptions,

Anyway - I'm sure there could be a pep8 plugin rule that enforces use of
parenthesis for multi line imports instead backslash line breaks [1] - but
would that be something that hacking would want to carry (since *most* of
the time H301 would kick in first?) - or if not; is there a way to plug it
into pep8 outside of hacking without having to install some random one-off
extension for this one rule separately?
