No, as far as I can tell, _ is an ordinary variable for python. It's
just that the toplevel assigns the latest return value to it, if that
value is not None. I don't think you could make the preparser do this
for you if Python, IPython or the notebook didn't.

I didn't mean it as a serious suggestion.
