My 2 cents is that regular expressions are pretty un-pythonic because of
their horrible readability. I would much rather see Python adopt something
like Verbal Expressions ( https://github.com/VerbalExpressions/
PythonVerbalExpressions ) into the standard library than add special syntax
support for normal REs.


I've never heard of this before, looks *awesome*. Thanks, if it's as good
as it sounds, I too would love something like this added to the standard
library.
