side note:

I find stuff like
>>> from email.Utils import parseaddr
much harder to read than the proper
>>> from email.Utils import parseaddr
 http://python.org/sf/531205

Even worse is
 http://<host>:<port>/<path>?<searchpart>
versus something like
scheme>://<authority><path>?<query>
(both quoted from http://python.org/sf/548176)

SourceForge is designed (intentionally, I am sure)
to accept and properly display the latter
and not require chicken-scratch input.
