No worries, there is no rush.

I primarily use emacs and sometimes vim. I don't have the others
installed, but someone else can test them if they wish.
Emacs and vim both agree at least.
def test_emacs(value):
'''This is a Python comment.
Here1'''
def test_vim(value):
'''This is a Python comment.
Here2'''
Another thing too, from PEP 257:

Since we have agreed upon single quotes for actual code, maybe the
double quotes will help differentiate docstrings? Just an idea. Also,
the quoting doesn't affect that test for me. Maybe other editors have
strange rules for that. :)
