Antoine Pitrou <pit...@free.fr> added the comment: Indeed, it would certainly be useful to review current behaviour and document it precisely; and then, perhaps change it in order to fix the current bug. The problem is that the current behaviour seems to have evolved quite organically, and it's not obvious who relies on what (as I said, Python has many users). I'm not myself motivated in doing such a research. Perhaps other developers can chime in.
