Just out of interest, what helpful features over and above the regular python shell does ipython/bpython provide, and how will this enhance the Dojo..?

One particularly useful feature is doctest-mode. Which makes the shell look just like a regular python shell, but allows you to paste in doctest style code. Very useful for copying and pasting code from the web to try it out.

# Eg.  Pasting in exactly this, will work
>>> x = 1
>>> print x
# It strips out all the leading >>>
