My understanding matches Guido's description, so I'm not sure any changes are 
needed.  Since an embedding application can provide an alternate API to the 
needed information, that seems sufficient.

That said, option "d" seems like a reasonable approach as well, and I'd have 
no objection to the change.  I suggest the sys.application instead of 
sys.app_executable for the new variable, but that's minor.
