Yes, I saw that as a documented limitation. Are there undocumented limitations as well?
Might be. However, there is one more documented the limitation: The PEP 311 extensions only work for a single interpreter state, as the PEP explains.
Is the feature headed for deprecation? I guess I'm not understanding your implication(s), if any.
That is not surprising, as the implication is not at all obvious :-) Here it is: Because the feature is essentially ill-designed, I'm not going to comment on the actual question (or on any other actual question about that feature), except for pointing out that the feature is fundamentally flawed. This is just my own policy, though. Regards, Martin
