Summary: Misleading string constant.

Initial Comment:
In _winreg.ConnectRegistry() it says:

computer_name is the name of the remote computer, of 
the form "\computername". If None, the local computer 
is used. 

Could it be changed to use r"\computername"? (it just 
took me half an hour to figure out why it couldn't find the 
computer on the network, and I really should know 
better :-)
