Łukasz Langa <luk...@langa.pl> added the comment: This specific config format you're discussing strikes me as error prone and barely useful. With the use case you've given I cannot justify introducing support for it in the standard library. Remember that each switch, variant, however obscure and rarely used, increases source code complexity and introduces a maintenance burden.
As you've seen with the freshly introduced `strict` option, we're generally heading the other direction: to let application users know early they potentially made a misconfiguration that could confuse them later on. So, thanks for your feedback but unfortunately I will have to say no to that proposal. ---------- resolution: -> rejected status: open -> closed _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue12662> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
