shiyao.ma added the comment: You've listed much of the benefits it can bring about.
The real problem is there are many places like iobase.seek to modify to support keyword argument, and seems not many people think it's a good idea to do that, per issue 8706. But I think the former is the main hinder. If there is one commiter that is interested to merge in the related code, I might consider taking my time and handling the rest related similar functions, including the test and the doc. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue25057> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
