Is this idea still alive? Despite the bike shedding, I think that some level of consensus may have been reached. So I suggest that either Neil (because it was your idea) or Steven (because you've had a lot of opinions, and done a lot of the homework) or both, of course, put together a reference implementation and a proposal, post it here, and see how it flies.
It's one function, so hopefully won't need a PEP, but if your proposal meets with a lot of resistance, then you could turn it into a PEP then. But getting all this discussion summaries would be good as a first step. NOTE: I think it's a fine idea, but I've got way to omay other things I'd like to do first -- so I'm not going to push this forward... -CHB On Fri, Aug 5, 2016 at 10:24 PM, Stephen J.
