This change has made the subprocess docs intimidating and unapproachable again - this is a *LOWER* level swiss-army knife API than the 3 high level convenience functions.

I've filed http://bugs.python.org/issue27050 to suggest changing the way this is documented to position run() as a mid-tier API that's more flexible than the high level API, but still more convenient than accessing subprocess.Popen directly.
