I agree with the RC and SB, but how would the linter know the user has a comment that permits the exception.?pocketlint is a wrapper for pyflakes and pep8, and they do not have an issue with this.

Adding python rules requires patches to go upstream, hacking our local module (pep8.py), or adding a new python linting module. version 0.5.5 of pylint does have a hacked pep8.py, so I favour keeping our madness in a single location.
