Well, you've probably answered your own question, then. Do you think tabnanny is a useful piece of code now?
Not really soo useful, because most syntax and also indentation errors are actually detected by invoking python, i.e. the command compile. But as combination for this: yes why not. I looked for Stanis spe editor, which uses a combination of these two.
The background is:
I'm a member of the wxPython project Drpython (Python text editor and much more), and wanted also check the usefulness of a kind of syntax
check, which should run, before saving a Python file.
PythonCard Codeeditor also uses tabnanny, as far as i can remember.

I've used drpython, and liked it. I think it would be a good way for people to start to use the language, as it avoids the "just the command line" syndrome without being as complex as IDLE or PythonWin. In short, just about right for a beginner.
