Interesting. The problem with readline.c doing this is that it gets implicitly imported by the interpreter -- although only for interactive sessions. Maybe that's not that big a deal. I'd still prefer to change the functions (would updating the PEP be in order here? Obviously, I'd update the api documentation).
