Set to accepted. As pointed out in private email, please apply it to the trunk. Your thoughts about the 'length' of pointers make sense, and are very similar to what I had in mind when I implemented pointer indexing. For indexing pointers, negative indices (in the C sense, not the usual Python sense) absolutely are needed, IMO. For slicing, missing indices do not really have a meaning - would it be possible to disallow them?
