Sounds good, but then I think the docs could be clearer about this. I scratched my head at the function signature bisect.bisect_left(a, x, lo=0, hi=len(a)) because it isn't valid (in Python, maybe in C?), so I checked the source and saw hi=None. I'm not sure how to concisely describe it though. Listing two signatures doesn't seem ideal.
