Description

What is the current behavior?

I had a PR open here https://github.com/snowflakedb/snowflake-connector-python/pull/2101 that is a concrete proposal. It got closed for potentially outdated code, but it is still relevant and is just waiting for approval from Snowflake

What is the desired behavior?

An opt-out from the slow dependency check

How would this improve snowflake-connector-python?

Improve import times meaningfully
