And if add support of non-literals, where should we stop? Should we support also frozenset() and bytearray()? inf and nan? infj and nanj? complex()? Ellipsis? __debug__?

Then the name of the function would be a bit misleading (for frozenset() and bytearray()), no? I think the set() change is somehow inconsistent already with the function name. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <report@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue39158> _______________________________________
