This was requested once before, but rejected. I would like to see that decision re-considered.

Some months ago, there was a very brief discussion started by Lawrence D’Oliveiro about this on the comp.lang.python newsgroup. Unfortunately neither his posts nor any replies to them seem to have been archived at the Python-List mailing list. His original post is on google groups:

https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/comp.lang.python/GmrGx9QQINQ

but I see no replies there. There is one reply on comp.lang.python, from Stefan Ram, but that doesn't appear on either the mailing list or Google Groups.
