   That's ok. A rejected PEP has its purpose, too. It will rest peacefully
in the archive, holding all arguments consolidated and will serve as a point
of reference.
   Any objection if I demand it be properly registered, assigned a number
and then rejected?

PS. Am I the champion whose PEP has been killed before I even finished it? ;)

Oleg.
