I'd be +1, but there's something missing from the PEP: what the underscores *mean*. You describe the syntax nicely, but not the semantics. >From reading the examples, I'd guess that the underscores are semantically transparent, meaning that the resulting value is the same if you just removed the underscores and interpreted the resulting literal. Right or wrong, could you please add a paragraph explaining the meaning of the underscores?
