easier to debug, cleaner code, more cross-platform... I wanted to do that
too, once, but I also came to the conclusion it wasn't a good idea.
And.. while you're right, "ugly" is a perfectly good reason for not doing
something, it's in the very first line of the Zen of Python:
lacrymology@Roller:boilerplate$ python -c 'import this'
The Zen of Python, by Tim Peters
Beautiful is better than ugly.
Explicit is better than implicit.
Simple is better than complex.
Complex is better than complicated.
Flat is better than nested.
Sparse is better than dense.
Readability counts.
Special cases aren't special enough to break the rules.
Although practicality beats purity.
Errors should never pass silently.
Unless explicitly silenced.
In the face of ambiguity, refuse the temptation to guess.
There should be one-- and preferably only one --obvious way to do it.
Although that way may not be obvious at first unless you're Dutch.
Now is better than never.
Although never is often better than *right* now.
If the implementation is hard to explain, it's a bad idea.
If the implementation is easy to explain, it may be a good idea.
Namespaces are one honking great idea -- let's do more of those!

with that out of the way, also, whatever it is you want to do, it sounds
blocking and time-consuming, which is something you probably don't want in
a template.
I recommend you explain what you need to do, and you'll get a
recommendation on how to do it in a more pythonic way
