Remember that there has been a lot of discussion about how ConfigParser should work in the past; for example (ignoring c.l.p):

My god. Read it all (which took me near a thermo flask (or whatever you call to an insulated bottle to keep liquids cold or hot) of "mate"!).
I see two paths here:
- Good one
- Bad one
No, sorry, seriously:
- Rewrite ConfigParser entirely.
- Apply my patch.
The first option is the better, though it's the one which will take more work. Someone needs to make a PEP. Michael Chermside, in the first mail of the first link that you sent, was working in a solution, but don't know what is done. In this case, both patchs I talked before should be rejected.
The second one is the quickest.
Both paths solves my problem. I think we should go with the second option in the short term, and with the first one in the long term.
What do you think?
