Fair enough, and I think a move out of "ext" would be wise for the
ProxyEngine.
although, with regards to a nonexistent "engine" parameter
automatically indicating a global....
Thats what keyword arguments are for: sane defaults.
i *do* remember someone reminding me that "explicit is better than
implicit", now who was that ? :)
Tim Peters, of course. But, as I recall, he also stated:
Beautiful is better than ugly.
Readability counts.
All in good fun, of course, but what use would a global ProxyEngine
be if I had to pass it into every contructor? ;)
