I'm sorry if it hit a bad nerve,
but I did skip this whole thread on c.l.py,
thinking that this could surely not be seriously meant,
so I guess don't have the understanding of the motivation
behind the proposal that I could have had.

I know there's been a long time request for this feature,
supposedly from people coming to Python from C,
but what's the real reason for adding it now,
without even a PEP ?
Does it really add enough to the language to justify the bloat ?
