We could always rename raw_input() to input(). Just a thought. . .
    

D'oh. Guido already said he doesn't like that idea :)

  

FWIW, I think it is a good idea.  If there is a little 2.x vs 3.0 confusion, so be it.   The use of input() function is already somewhat rare (both because of infrequent use cases and because of the stern warnings about eval's security issues).  It is better to bite the bullet and move on than it would be to avoid the most obvious name.
