I think an enriched slicing model that allows sequence views to be expressed easily as "this slice of this sequence" would allow this to be dealt with cleanly, without requiring every sequence to provide a corresponding "sequence view" with non-copying semantics.

I think this is promising. I like the potential unification.

Should I make a Py3k PEP for this?

I think so ;-)
