Wow.  This makes Python twice more LISPy, than <1, 2, 3> and {-} make it
C-ish and Perlish.

Frop Python-zen:
Simple is better than complex.
Flat is better than nested.

Sets are good.  Sets are fun.  Sets are pythonish (the programmer codes
the logical side of a data structure, bothering less 'bout the
technical).  I think, they deserve their literal notation.
