If it can be shown that this is a pure win (that is, it improves code for 2.3.4, but is both backwards and forwards compatible, then I don't mind. I do mind if we end up with the horror of 2.2.2's not-really- booleans, which has resulted in FAR FAR too much code of the form:
try: True, False except: True, False = 1, 0
It depends on the usage. If applications just do
foo.encode("some-cjk-encoding")
then all will work fine. However, it may be that applications do
try: codecs.lookup("some-cjk-encoding") except LookupError: try: import japanese japanese.register_aliases() except ImportError: pass
