>Is adding a GUI to Python a problem?

Absolutely none. A raving fan of IDLE, in fact - especially in the context
of CP4E.

We're talking 100% open source Python code. The medium is now the message.

From my perspective, that's better than good. That's great, key.

Certain customization options will be disabled in my class, true. My class
will reflect my taste, of course.

And, of course, behind IDLE we will be running the world's first fully
executable textbook.

Perhaps I'm a little over-anxious in trying to get a peek at it.
