Guido has said he wants to keep open() around as the way to open a

support opening non-files (e.g. urls). So open("C:\file.

The choice is GUI toolkits is largely seperate from Python. Consider
that they are just bindings to libraries that are developed completely
seperate of the language. GUI is should be seperate from the language,
