I just want to point out that the documentation states that an opener can be
used with urlopen:
urllib.request.install_opener(opener)
Install an OpenerDirector instance as the default global opener. Installing
an opener is only necessary if you want urlopen to use that opener;
Reference:
https://docs.python.org/3/library/urllib.request.html?highlight=urllib.request#urllib.request.install_opener
Issue 17483 was closed (rejected) because it was considered that a custom
opener can be used when opening https links.
