[This was new in 1.6] The Windows installer now installs by default in \Python20\ on the default volume, instead of \Program Files\Pyt...

What I really wanted was code that would analyze the shape and members of the initializer, query the class definitions themselves about their members, and then adjust itself to impedance-match the two sets. This kind of thing is called metaclass hacking and is generally considered fearsomely esoteric -- deep black magic. Most object-oriented languages don't support it at all; in those that do (Perl being one)...
