Hello,
I was wondering, how to make a feature request?
I would really like having a string.contains('...') function which returns
either True or False. I know I can mimick this behaviour by saying
string.find('...') != -1 , however, I find this harder to read.
string.contains('...') is easier

You can post suggestions to improve python on the python-ideas mailing list
or make feature requests on the bugtracker at bugs.python.org

If you are not interested in the position of the substr use the in
operator:
if substr in s:
print found
else:
print not found

I'm not aware of any idioms, but how about a simple function?
def listinlist(list1, list2):
checks if list1 is in list2
if not list1:
return True
