I'd go with path. While I'm not at all certain that it's "the" way to go, it'll at least break the conceptual logjam caused by simply providing wrappers around the C library functions. I'd definitely like to see ctypes. I can agree with the segfault issue, but I think that some design work would eliminate that. PyChecker, rather obviously. Likewise I'd like to see something that would do a decent job of coverage analysis. Neither of the modules out there at the moment is ready for prime time. I don't have enough experience with interactive mode to have an opinion on IPython. What I would like to see is a Python based shell that could compete with either ksh or Monad.
