This really bad news. I assume that you mean the browser does not only have 
a dict with the keys classes, functions, and so on, but for e.g. the 
functions there is a dict with the functions' names as keys. Correct?

So if I cannot expect a soon change I have to go for another IDE or python 
editor.

SPE seems to be quite unstable. Do you have a suggestion for a good python 
editor with browser?
