Discussion points
=================
(1) Any objections to including this into py3k? If there's
controversy, then I guess we'll need a PEP.
Big +1
(2) Should other Python implementations (Jython,
IronPython, etc.) be expected to use short float repr, or should
it just be considered an implementation detail of CPython?
I propose the latter, except that all implementations should
be required to satisfy eval(repr(x)) == x for finite floats x.
Short float repr should be an implementation detail, so long as
eval(repr(x)) == x still holds.
