Would it be (easily) possible to print the column as
well as the line of the character with the 8th bit set
in the message for the DeprecationWarning?

I make this request because emacs sometimes seems to
want to put latin1 non-breaking spaces (\xA0) in my
comments and they are quite hard to spot :-)

I can probably implement this myself, but you (Martin)
can probably do it in a snap -- if it's easy, anyway.
If it's hard, I'm not sure it's worth it.

StreamReaders that keep track of line and column numbers
would help implementors of other types of parsers too.

IIUC, we don't have the PEP-263 DeprecationWarning mentioned anymore and
this should be closed.

Daniel, do you have developer rights on the tracker? Otherwise, you may
ask for them on python-dev if you intend to do some housekeeping :)
