As a fan of Clojure, I would love for Python to get rid of most of strange and archaic (IMO) unpacking syntax and just switch wholesale to Clojure-style destructuring. In my opinion, it's a single solution for all of those problems and it ends up looking a lot cleaner. It's also just a lot easier to work with if you're trying to unpack a single value from a nested structure or define a flexible API.
