If a block of static data is large enough to start to be ugly, a common

Maybe it is common in industrial applications but not in smaller production,
and according to my observation not common at all in all occasional scripts.
YAML comes to mind
Actually plugging a data syntax in existing language is not a new idea.
Though I don't know real success stories.
Thing is, you can do it already now in the script, without modifying the
Python interpreter, by parsing a triple-quoted string. See the examples
right here: http://pyyaml.org/wiki/PyYAMLDocumentation
