[Python-ideas] New list methods

[Jeremy Banks]

I believe the proposal is to have l.rremove() take a value parameter,
and remove the last occurrence of that value from the list, not just
the last value in the list.

My assumpting is that their basic functionality would work like this.

    l = [1, 2, 3, 2, 1]
    l.rindex(2) == 3
    l.rremove(2)
    l == [1, 2, 3, 1]

I'd say +1.
