Rev 62545 to 2.6 was forward ported to 3.0 on 4May,
r62716.  I'm using py3k HEAD and it works the same
as 2.6: pressing Home toggles beween the left margin
and the start of the code text.  It works the same way
on Linux and Windows XP.

Won't fix, because this is not a bug, but a feature.
It's useful for copying blocks from the shell.

If you press home to get to the start of the code
text next to the prompt, why did you press it again
except to get to the left margin?  And if you did so
accidentally, press it a third time!
