I think, this has no chance to be included into Python.
Or Python will be messier than C++ is now.
I do not believe pre-tokenizer directives are required...
.spy things could be handled even now, so the overhead will
be only for those who need it:
--- file.spy ---
#!/usr/bin/prepython
#!pragma
$!pythma
#!pyth on
#!pyth off
