I am. Lambda should bind more loosely.
Consider the typical callback lambda usage case:
MyGuiButton(lambda: mysort() if mode == SORT else browse(), "Do it.")
That is, I definitely want the scope of the lambda to go all the way to
the comma.
I like the suggestion for the extended n-ary form. Partly because it's
a stronger helper for the most important usage context, but also because
it moves Python more towards being an expression-oriented language.
