Alas, I think it's too late. I feel your pain.

Thanks! And I know it's too late, I should have found out about this
earlier :-(

For future reference, the time to have said something would have been during the 3 month alpha phase, which is for testing feature and api changes. I suspect, from reading the pydev discussion, that the answer still would have been to either use a def statement and add the unpack line or to subscript the tuple arg to stick with lambda expressions. But who knows?
