Tuples will have an index method in Python 2.6. I promise I won't indiscriminately use tuples for homogenous data. Honest. Scout's honor. Cross my heart.
Use them as you want. This change came about because .index was included in the 3.0 Sequence ABC (abstract base class) and tuple was included as a sequence, so .... something had to give. The result was tuple getting the full suite of immutable sequence methods. And then there was no good reason to not backport ;-).
