Josh Rosenberg added the comment: I'm not a core developer, but writing the patch is usually considered helpful. Two notes:
1. Make sure to write unit tests for any new behavior 2. I'd suggest making any such argument keyword-only; if we move closer to the Java executor model, that means having a lot of options, the majority of which would be left as the default by users. Binding the API to a particular argument order is sub-optimal (it makes it even harder to deprecate arguments for instance), so enforcing keyword only behavior ensures users can't write call lines that take dependencies on argument ordering. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue21423> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
