We did consider this, but we decided to use "gluster" instead. All packages
related to Gluster (the community, as a whole eco-system of projects) can use
the "gluster" namespace. If we use "glusterfs" there is something like a
restriction on what could get included there. We would like to see different
projects use the "gluster" namespace, even if they are packaged within the
(main) GlusterFS project.

Additional tools and utilities can provide shared Python packages/libraries,
things like this are possible now (fictional example):

    # import functions to get statistics from tcpdumps
    from gluster import wireshark
