This may seem like an odd question, but I’m intrigued by the idea of using Python as a data definition language with “undo” support. If I were to try and instrument the Python interpreter to be able to step backwards, would that be an unduly difficult or inefficient thing to do? (Please reply to me directly.)

The pydev list is for development of the next version of Python. Please direct your question to a more appropriate forum such as python-list.

Actually, this is not only appropriate on some lists, on some lists one is actually strongly discouraged from doing anything else. EG: sun-managers, where replies are expected to be private, and the originator of the thread is expected to collect all (private) replies and summarize them, to keep the list traffic low and the S/N ratio high.
