Eli, it would be nice if you stopped with this claim. I'm not advocating "not having a convenience syntax", I'm advocating having a convenience syntax which is *class-based* rather than function-based. Debuggers are beside the point: there are two kinds of "convenience syntax" on the table; one allows pickling by construction, one requires an ugly hack which may not solve all cases (and which may apparently make Jython / IronPython mildly unhappy). Why you insist on ignoring the former and imposing the latter is beyond me.
