Comment (by Keryn Knight):
Yeah, if I had any real idea about how to move it forwards, I fully
appreciate that would help :)
My main concern is twofold:
- New users are ''potentially'' (though not necessarily) more likely to
experience a problem if it is a version specific issue, as they may not
have the skills or opportunity to be on the latest and greatest Python
version; or if they do encounter it (regardless of version) it is masking
an actual error.
- that 2.2 is an LTS, and 3.5 is still one of the supported versions for
that, so even if there's a ''perceived'' ergonomics regression in
something as vital as autoreloading (being that wsgi is long-lived but not
statically typed), the opportunity to ''fix'' it before it's essentially
is frozen is ''arguably'' perhaps up to December, after which it'd almost
certainly be a sub-par experience for those sticking with it (and the
fewer users therein who encounter the problem) for the remainder of it's
lifetime (until the next LTS in 2022)
Once upon a time, at least SyntaxError caused a restart to be required
IIRC, but I think that's not been the case for a while now (I'd check
further, but I can't recall when it might've been). I can't recall if
NameError or UnboundLocalError previously caused similar manual restarts,
but I wouldn't be entirely surprised.
