Feature or enhancement

Proposal:

Attribute autocomplete in the new REPL does not show underscored names unless specifically asked for:

>>> class Foo:
...     _foo = 2
...     foo = 3
...     
>>> Foo.<tab>
Foo.foo    Foo.mro()

Note that only Foo.foo is offered. To also get Foo._foo, we need to write Foo._<tab>. We should do the same for the import autocomplete.
Currently it just shows all modules/submodules, including those starting with an underscore:

>>> from importlib import <tab>
_abc                 _bootstrap_external  machinery            readers              simple                                                         
_bootstrap           abc                  metadata             resources            util

Please don't pick up this issue, I'd like to reserve it for someone at the PyConUS sprints :)
