Otherwise have to call client('close')() to close a server proxy and that's just ugly.

Hi. Here's a simple patch for this.

[brettcannon]

Thanks for the patch, Cladiu! Since the 3.5 branch is not open yet it might not be until late March or April when I can look at this patch and get it committed, but I will get to it.

[jesstess]

Thanks for the patch, Claudiu.Popa! I noticed one tiny thing, which is that it introduced some trailing whitespace. I've uploaded a trivial change to your patch that removes the whitespace.

• The patch applies cleanly.
• The docs build cleanly with the patch.
• test_xmlrpc passes with the patch.
• I visually inspected the changes in the built HTML docs and they look good. I also ran the modified example code from the docs and confirmed that it runs as expected.

=> needs review

[PCManticore]

Cool, thanks, Jessica!

[merwok]

Looks good to me; left some comments on Rietveld.

[PCManticore]

Thanks for the review, Éric! I uploaded a new version of the patch, which addresses your comments.

[PCManticore]

Patch updated with fixes suggested by Éric.

[merwok]

This looks ready to me. Thanks Claudiu!

[PCManticore]

My pleasure. Thanks for the reviews, too!
