It's really a shame. It was a nice idea ... Could we at least use the new formating for str(float) and the display of floats? In Python 2.6 floats are not displayed with repr(). They seem to use yet another hook. >>> repr(11./5) '2.2' >>> 11./5 2.2000000000000002 >>> str(11./5) '2.2'

>>> repr(11./5)
'2.2'
>>> 11./5
2.2000000000000002
>>> str(11./5)
'2.2'
