Comment(by roed):
Yeah, that was a typo: apply only 8162.2.patch.
I can't think of a good reason to allow a list, but also no particular
reason not to allow it, since lists are a common container for objects in
Python. :-)
As for the check parameter, my interpretation of check=False is that it
only accepts input of a particular format in order to minimize the time
spent in handling different input formats. So I think it's completely
reasonable for your example to fail when you don't pass in something of
the form [(p, k)].
So I guess my conclusion is that I don't think the issues you're pointing
out are problems.
