* I think I've submitted this one to the tracker, but can't remember: It's for PySequenceSetItem and makes something like this possible:

tup = ([], ) tup[0] += [1]

That definitely needs fixing:

py> tup = ([], ) py> tup[0] += [1] Traceback (most recent call last): File "", line 1, in ? TypeError: object doesn't support item assignment py> tup ([1],)

Errors should never pass silently, but success shouldn't cause an error message, either.

* One patch for staticmethod and classmethod, which currently silently accept keyword arguments and throw them away. The patch adds error messages.

Sounds good as well.
