Hi there, I recently filed a feature request in the tracker to change the behaviour of the parser in terms of setting ranges on attribute AST nodes, because I'm working on an application which needs more information than is currently provided. I suggested to change the behaviour from foo.bar.baz # <- foo is said to start at column 0, bar at 0 and baz at 0 (current) to foo.bar.baz # <- foo starts at 0, bar at 3 and baz at 7 (suggestion)
In that discussion, there's been different opinions about which behaviour is better; main arguments were "consistency" for the current and "usefulness" for the suggested behaviour. It has been proposed to ask the question on this list, that's why I'm doing that now. :) The thread can be found here: http://bugs.python.org/issue10769 So, which version do you think to be better: the current one or the suggested one?
