On a related note ...

All this would just go away if in Python 3.0 (or even earlier ;) floats required something after the decimal point i.e. to get '<float 1.0>' you had to type '1.0' and '1.' by itself was a syntax error.

I've never actually seen the use case for having '1.' parse as '<float 1.0>' although I'm sure there is one.
