[Python-ideas] Options parsing in the Tornado Web Server

[Andrey Fedorov]

I remember seeing a bit of discussion about improving Python's default
options parsing... Tornado's seems very impressive [1]:

> from tornado.options import define, options
>
> define("port", default=8888, help="run on the given port", type=int)
>
> print options.port
>
> What does everyone think?
