OK, the property setter does a "% 7" now. (But the global setfirstweekday() still does a range check). Wouldn't it be better for the setter to raise an exception if it's out of range? It probably indicates a bug in the caller's code.

The day before Monday is -1, so it adds a little convenience. If this convenience is really worth it is a completely different topic.

I think we've spent more time discussing the calendar module, than the Python community has spent using it! ;)
