[Python-ideas] os.listdir default to '.'

Hello all,

I frequently use Python from the interactive interpreter as a shell. It is
a frequent, but mild, irritant that I have to type os.listdir('.') instead
of just os.listdir().

How about making '.' a default argument for os.listdir ?

All the best,

Michael
