Oooh! Python-ideas territory!
I think the parser should allow two consecutive semi-colons, or four commas,
as an alias for a colon. Then we could write code like:
def spam(arg);;
for x in seq,,,,
pass
for people who have a broken keyboard or have remapped colon to something
else. It would also make reading slices an exciting adventure:
seq[1,,,,][,,,,,,,,-1]
What do you think? Is it perhaps better suited to perl-ideas?
