Thats a daft response and barely worth the time to reply but as it's a
Saturday and I'm feeling chilled out I'll spell it out to you...

I'm sure most PEPs originate from users asking for new features. The
language is unlikely to evolve without suggestions such as these.

I know that my experiences are not unique. I'm not suggesting anything
that wouldn't benefit the language in general.

I'd love to have the time but I'm spending it all in the
develop-test-debug cycle at the moment.
