[python-win32] Request for comments

[Dahlstrom, Roger]

I'd add to that that I prefer the space, and I only use notepad++ for coding.  Everything worked fine for me.  

My only suggestion was that the navigation was a bit inconsistent on the front page - I had to scroll down to see what the "contents" were - the "registry"
section was hidden at first.  I would have expected that to be in the upper left with the rest of the nav.

Do you understand that this is strictly a personal preference?  Some 
people like it, some people don't.  You are certainly allowed to 
"prefer" one over the other, but it's a bit much to ask someone else to 
change their coding style to match yours, unless you are a paying 
client.  ;)

I think that each of these items is specifically talking about the 
Pythonwin editor here.  Is that correct?  I've never had problems 
cutting and pasting code, although I tend to use gvim and a command line 
instead.  What issues do you see?
