No, I didn't take the refusal personally at all, though it seemed
kinda glib to xhtml-not-hmtl out of a bug.  Such is life.

What I object to is getting auto-spammed for years after that because
I was silly enough to enter my email on their database and then being
notified about every single event on that bug.

Yes, that's why I reported it.  Python is extremely stable so it
seemed worthwhile.  And I figured someone on the list would know its
bug quotient.

Impressed that there is already a bit of a proposed approach on the
entry to fix it, you guys are great.

But... I rather thought __repr__ was going to disappear in 3.x, with
just __str__ sticking around.
