Replying to [comment:3 niles]:
> Thanks for taking a look! Somewhere I gained the impression that
doctests for a ticket should mention the ticket number--is that not
necessarily the case? I don't really have a strong opinion, but since it
may be non-obvious functionality I'm in favor of keeping these tests in
the EXAMPLES:: section. How about rewording the description to something
like the following? `Passes extra positional or keyword arguments through
(Trac #3893)::`
I'm not sure what the official policy is, but I'd say it would be a bit
odd when in a few years time the docstring is cluttered with trac ticket
numbers, what information do they communicate that is relevant? I am very
much in favour of having "`Passes extra positional or keyword arguments
through::`". I leave it up to you, so you have a positive review, i.e.
toggle it yourself if you don't want to change it.
