Yes.  When you have a statement like this:

	a, b = some_sequence_like_object

Then Python iterates over the sequence using __getitem__ to extract the 
values from it.  IndexError is how Python knows it has reached the end 
of the sequence, but since it is not a standard type that WingIDE knows 
about it catches it in the debugger and shows it to you.  You can tell 
Wing to ignore that exception when it is raised from that function and 
then it will work as you expect.
