A friend at work who is new to Python wondered why this didn't work with
pickle:

    class Outer:

        Class Inner:

            ...

        def __init__(self):
            self.i = Outer.Inner()

I explained:

> http://docs.python.org/library/pickle.html#what-can-be-pickled-and-unpickled 
> 
> 
>  From that:
> 
>     # functions defined at the top level of a module
>     # built-in functions defined at the top level of a module
>     # classes that are defined at the top level of a module

I've never questions this, but I wonder, is this a fundamental restriction
or could it be overcome with a modest amount of work?

Just curious...
