Hi Barry,

Thanks for doing the work of writing a PEP.  The rational section
could use some strengthing, I think.  Who is benefiting from this
feature?

The original proposal of changing .pyc to a directory would be negative to me so I would not use the option. I am pretty sure that I would consider the alternate proposal of one cache subdirectory per source directory to be a plus for me. Giving that I only put .py files in a directory, the directory listing (skipping subdirs which Windows sorts at the top) would then be a listing of my .py files without the noise of duplicates. Finding files in /Lib for source viewing would also be much easier. No noise, and twice as much real info on the screen at once.

I am assuming that having two directories open, each have as large, would have negligable time and space impact.
