I also like Alex's suggestion of
itertools.irange([start,] stop[, step][,reverse=False])
I'd rather this than a revrange - that feels over-specialised, whereas
an irange with a reverse keyword parameter seems natural.
I'd still support this addition to itertools whether or not the reversed()
builtin was implemented (although with irange, reversed() loses a lot of
its use cases...)
