Reconceptualizing for beginners...

Many people working with kids have asked for various changes to Python
in order to make it easier for kids, sometimes very young.  Some
variations have been requested more than once.

1. Simple looping:
2. Simple function call:
3. Simple Native language keywords.

4. Visible leading spaces (or even all spaces). There is a unicode small middle dot char that is suitable for this. It would have to be translated back to space before feeding to compile. This could be a one-off hard-coded mechanism, but I would rather add a generic mechanism.
