Summary: itemgetter built-in?

Initial Comment:
uhm... operator.itemgetter() is useful and all, but fairly 
retarded looking for how simple it is

basically what i am wrestling with at the moment is 
doing some regular expressions without completely 
ganking the crap out of the code to make it work, since 
every freakin thing in re returns None all over the bloody 
place like regular expressions were hitting a ragging 
pinata with a chainsaw

after a LOT of muckymuck, basically six hours straight, 
the simplest non-conditional form i could come up with 
was this:

any comments would be leet!

my request for enhancement is either a built-in version of 
operation.itemgetter() or an alteration of the behavior of re 
matches, i'm assuming the matter is up for debate so i wasn't 
being specific.

this issue has nothing to do with showing code and i find your 
followup to be completely off topic!

Please tell us what your request for enhancement is or I'm
going to close this as Invalid.

Sorry I'm not showing more respect for your writing
abilities :-), but if you want to show code around, do it on
comp.lang.python please.
