R. David Murray <rdmur...@bitdance.com> added the comment: Adrian's suggestions don't look to me like they fiddle with the API, but rather make the behavior match the documented API. The existing behavior is, IMO, a very surprising corner case, especially to a less experienced Python programmer. I do note that assertRaises in unittest has the same issue. However, I think people are quite a bit more likely to run in to the issue with submit, since 'fn' is going to occur as a keyword argument with considerably higher frequency than 'excClass' or 'callableObj'.
