Yes, but as I said I need functionality present in the standard-library, so
sub-classing ConfigParser is the last option really.
Any particular reason you're limited to the standard library?
I've used iniparse http://code.google.com/p/iniparse/

So it does; I'd forgotten that. I need to remember to actually check

Without code, that's hard to determine. But you are aware of e.g.

Any idea what this positive lookbehind achieves which can't be done
without it.
I remember cases where positive look-ahead is useful.
In the above example, r.search('abcdef') does the job of ensuring
'def' is preceded by 'abc'.

Seems to me the pos and endpos arguments are redundant with slicing,
Being able to specify the start and end indices for a search is

One of the points at issue (minimalism/monotony) relates to TOOWTDI,
