It isn't a problem if you are using a braille display or the Emacs Python
mode with Emacspeak. I personally prefer begin/end tokens because I don't
think the language should impose a style on the author, but this isn't a
strong preference, and this mailing list is not the place to discuss it
(any flames will be directed summarily to /dev/null).
