Summary: No examples or usage docs for urllib2

Initial Comment:
Hi there,

I'm sure I reported this before, but it's a couple of
major releases later, and there's still no usage docs
for urllib2.

The examples given are too trivial to be helpful, but
I'm guessing people are using the module so there must
be some examples out there somewhere ;-)

With a bit o fhelp from Moshez, I found the docstring
in the module source. At the very least, it'd be handy
if that appeared somewhere at:

http://docs.python.org/lib/module-urllib2.html

But really, mroe extensive and helpful documentation on
this cool new module would be very handy.

Chris
