What do you think about this?

I (who writes Python code for a living) love it! See also: http://cci.lbl.gov/~rwgk/python/adopt_init_args_2005_07_02.html

Please make Python more selfish. Note that this is also an obvious avenue for significant performance increases. If self is implicit you don't have to do the dictionary lookup for "self" all the time as is the case now.

Good luck with your battle!

Cheers, Ralf
