:Status: Current
Tuomas' "`Handling Bugs`_" PEG specifies that an RFC 2822-like
syntax should be used to mark failing PEGs. However,
- RFC 2822 headers are supposed to be at the beginning of
something; putting them at the end of something
(as "Handling Bugs" does) isn't really well-specified
and needs our own parser.
- These headers aren't meant to be used in docstrings.
Therefore, I propose to use reStructuredText_ field lists
instead. They're designed to be very much like RFC 2822 headers,
but can appear anywhere in a reST fragment-- and reStructuredText
was designed for use in Python docstrings.
