A comment along similar lines: wouldn't it make sense to allow the user
to automatically execute python code before a notebook is loaded,
somewhat similarly to what is done on the javascript side with the
content of profile/startup/custom?
Often, I find myself in a similar situation: when the name of a notebook
is of a particular form, I want to create a data folder for that
notebook, want to have a specific first cell, etc.
If there was a place somewhere in profile/python/startup, whose python
code were executed before the notebook is loaded, a lot of these
problems could easily be solved, or delegated to the user.
Now, I don't know the security implications of such a mechanism, and
this idea might have already been discussed and rejected by the core
team, so I might be barking up the wrong tree...
Cheers,
Zoltán
