title: Why not python implicit line continuation on period?
body: <p>Is there any reason Python does not allow implicit line continuations after (or before) periods?  That is</p>
  
  <pre><code>data.where(lambda d: e.name == 'Obama').
      count()
  
  
  data.where(lambda d: e.name == 'Obama')
      .count()
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Does this conflict with some feature of Python?  With the rise of method chaining APIs this seems like a nice feature.</p>
