That's still abusing private api though -- the ONLY code which should
be importing and using this module is stuff which resides in QGIS
master.

If you find it useful, you should copy this class inside your plugin
and always use your internal copy, so that you're not risking breakage
if the api of that class is ever changed in future releases.
