[Python-Dev] Missing operator.call

My guess is that it was left out because it would have been redundant
given the existence of apply() in 2.x.

That argument no longer holds in 3.x of course, so operator.call may be
a reasonable addition to 3.1 (and then to 2.7 for forward compatibility
reasons).

I'm somewhere between -0 and +0 though (-0 due to the lack of concrete
use cases, +0 because the improved consistency is appealing)

Cheers,
Nick.
