"tables the idea" has the US meaning of close it down, not the UK meaning of open it up? :) A better phrase would've been "shelves the idea". There's even a module in Python called "shelve", which makes it Pythonic. :-) So does that mean we should have a "table" module for managing objects we want to currently work on? Yes, although in the US locale it would be an alias for the 'shelve' module. :-)
