Correct. I had to hack in mUTF-7 support in getmail to properly support
international IMAP users.

It might be worth instead adding an option flag to the executable that implies
"from the loaded module, run __main__() with sys.argv as its argument(s)", so
the user can get this behaviour with `python -X somemodule.py`.

That wasn't quite my p

nothing for the program but merely has the interesting side-effect of writing

It's an anomaly. It stands out in the language as a sore thumb waiting for

While I'm at it, why not propose that for py3k that
.rfind/.rindex/.rjust/.rsplit disappear, and .find/.index/.just/.split grow an
optional "fromright" (or equivalent) optional keyword argument?

Me too. I have various programs that construct lots of large REs on the fly,
knowing they'll only be used once. Not having to compile them to objects
inline makes the code cleaner and easier to read.

Much Python code I've looked at uses ValueError for this purpose. Would
adding a special exception add much utility?
