I need to move away from the GMail client for lists or they need to fix it. Sorry Guido, forwarding to the list as GMail should be doing in the first place!

Well, that might be a spelling of `operator::XXX` but what about other use cases like `third_party_interface_system::adapt` or `anything_at_all::XXX`? Thats what I mean with not being too limiting and solving the problem in a way that opens up solutions to other problems. I get the opposition to it, but it seems reasonable, nonetheless.

(See Guido's BinaryTree flattening example.) class MyClass(object): pass MyClass.operator::iter = lambda self: iter((self.a, self.b, self.c)) Or, possibly: def MyClass.operator::iter(self): yield a yield b yield c But, I understand if that would get even more opposition, so I won't push it, but its on the table.
