2) Backport the argument annotations patch to the 2.X series and get it out to the public as quickly as possible. (According to the conversation I had with Guido, this should be relatively easy since the annotations patch was one of the first patches to diverge between 2.X and 3.0).

Do you think that there will be support for this? Annotations seem
like a big new feature for Python, more suited to Python 3.X.

With tuple parameters removed, there would still be divergence in 2.X.

By the way, I would like to work on either removing tuple parameters
in 3.0 or fixing the assertion failure currently in CVS.
