Can I suggest making 'python -t' the default, in 2.6? It makes python warn about mixing tabs and spaces in indentation. In Py3k, '-tt' (the error-raising version) will be the default, instead. I see too many newsbies with problems they can't figure out because they mix tabs and spaces (usually not even consciously, but just because their editor isn't playing along.) There probably should be an option to turn the warning off again (although I won't fight for it ;) -- but I don't know what that option should be.
