Summary: using some_re.sub() often imports sre.__doc__
Initial Comment:
Why is __doc__ imported from the builtin sre module
when a regular expression is substituted replacing a group?

Below is the full source of re.py. Does your problem go away
when you use sre directly instead?
"""Minimal "re" compatibility wrapper. See "sre" for
documentation."""
engine = "sre" # Some apps might use this undocumented variable
from sre import *
from sre import __all__

This is significant for programs that use an expensive
import hook, and also use this kind of regex.
I'm working around this by making my import hook return
early for imports from sre.

Summary: pydoc on cgi.escape lacks info that are in www docs
Initial Comment:
WWW:
escape( s[, quote])
Convert the characters "&", "<" and ">" in string s
to HTML-safe sequences. Use this if you need to display
text that might contain such characters in HTML. If the
optional flag quote is true, the double-quote character
(""") is also translated; this helps for inclusion in
an HTML attribute value, as in . If the
value to be quoted might include single- or
double-quote characters, or both, consider using the
quoteattr() function in the xml.sax.saxutils module
instead.
pydoc
cgi.escape = escape(s, quote=None)
Replace special characters '&', '<' and '>' by SGML
entities.
why? ;(
moreover pydoc doesn't even say what quote is!!

The documentation from pydoc is generated from doc-strings
in the python source. Not only does this limit what you can
do with it (hence the need for more elaborate
documentation), it is also reasonable that this
documentation remains terse. You should consider it more as
a quick reference in stead of full-on documentation.
I have submitted a small patch (1243910) to include a
comment in the doc-string about quote.
