New submission from Paul Moore:

The codecs module allows the user to register additional codecs, but does not 
offer a means of getting a list of registered codecs.

This is important, for example, in a tool to re-encode files. It is reasonable 
to expect that such a tool would offer a list of supported encodings, to assist 
the user. For example, the -l option of the iconv command.
