cannot import name 'T5Tokenizer' from 'transformers.models.t5'

Question

As you see in the following python console, I can import T5Tokenizer from transformers. However, for simpletransformers.t5 I get an error:

>>> from transformers import T5Model, T5Tokenizer
>>> from simpletransformers.t5 import T5Model, T5Args
