[gdal-dev] "import gdal" broken in 3.2.0: what to do ?

[Even Rouault]

Hi,

As noted in https://github.com/OSGeo/gdal/issues/3149, the old way of 
importing the Python bindings with "import gdal" instead of "from osgeo import 
gdal" was accidentally broken in 3.2.0 . The old way has been officially 
deprecated for many years.

Any opinion if we should just acknowledge that removal by updating 3.2 NEWS or 
restore back the old import way (per PR https://github.com/OSGeo/gdal/pull/
3150) for 3.2.1 ? (whatever we do, at least people using 3.2.0 would be 
impacted)
