That's a good idea. But really Python is already close to that. A lot of times it is easier to just write out a python dictionary than using a DB or XML or whatever. Python is already close to YAML in some ways. Maybe even better than YAML, especially if Fredrik's claims of YAML's inherent unreliability are to be believed. Of course he develops a competing XML product, so who knows.

true, it's easy enough to separate the data from the functionality in python by putting the data in a dictionary/list/tuple, but it stays source code.
