I don't think this option will be of any value.  For it to work, the code would need to have this particular bug, have test cases that triggered those bugs, and a user sophisticated enough to run the tests but unsophisticated enough to make beginner mistakes regarding when to use identity tests versus equality tests (something I teach on day one of beginner Python courses).

Before this goes further, I would like to see some evidence that it would actually catch a real bug in the wild.
