I don't think this suggestion is helpful or necessary.   The map() docs have 
been around for a long time and this hasn't proven to be a point of confusion.  

The itertools docs already have a recipe demonstrating the technique of passing 
the same iterator multiple times with izip_longest().  That is a case where the 
technique is useful.  In the context of map() however this technique is rarely, 
if ever, used.

A last thought is that we do put in rough pure python equivalents when they 
help understand the function.  In this case though, the pure python code 
provided is likely only intelligible to someone who already understands map().

Thank you for the suggestion, but we should pass on this one.
