I think you should implement it as a C extension and/or write a PEP. This has been an unfilled need in Python for a while (SF RFE 467384). Note that using marshal is inappropriate, not only for security reasons, but because marshal is explicitly NOT guaranteed to interoperate across differing Python versions. You cannot assume that an object marshalled in Python 2.4 will unmarshal correctly in 2.5. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
