[Python-Dev] Should the default equality operator compare values instead of identities?

[BJörn Lindqvist]

How would the value equality operator deal with recursive objects?

class Foo:
    def __init__(self):
        self.foo = self

Seems to me that it would take atleast some special-casing to get
Foo() == Foo() to evalute to True in this case...
