Perhaps you missed Tim's post, so here's a few lines of my own code
that I know would break:
padding = [None] * (self.width - len(leaves))
left_padding = [None] * (self.left_width - len(left_window))
right_padding = [None] * (self.right_width - len(right_window))
Sure, I could write these as:
padding = [None] * max(0, self.width - len(leaves))
left_padding = [None] * max(0, self.left_width - len(left_window))
right_padding = [None] * max(0, self.right_width - len(right_window))
But if this change goes in, I want a big "we're breaking backwards
incompatibility" message somewhere. I say if you really want an
exception raised for these cases, ask for the behavior change in
Python 3000. All it would give us in Python 2.X is a bunch of broken
code.
