Yes I am, and of course you are correct that that could 
change and so shouldn't be relied on.

Seems that my crappy solution is not quite as 
future-proof as I thought it was. Since a better 
solution does exist, I agree it should be used in 
preference to my crappy one, assuming you are running a 
recent enough version of Python.
