I wouldn't really change Python in this particular
way, but it does have a certain appeal to it. For example, it
could also be written...

	...
		def MyClass.addItems ( ...
			...

...to define a static function.

Face it, though, one way or another all of these various
kinds of things are just different kinds of syntactic sugar.
