If there's any apologizing to be done, it's on Anatoly's part.  Your
post was short, to the point, information-packed, and should put a big
fat open-centered ideographic full stop period to this thread.

Fernando clearly showed that IPython rocks, because CPython suxx. I don't think anybody should apologize for the intention to fix this by enhancing CPython, so as a python-dev subscriber you should be ashamed of yourself for this proposal already. ;)
 

Thanks everyone else for explaining the problem with current implementation. I'll post a follow-up as soon as I have a time to wrap my head around the details and see for myself why the IPython solution is so hard to implement.
