I personally hope that's not required; yours has been the only dissenting email and I believe I respond to all of your major points here.

Silence is not assent.

ipaddr looks like a reasonable library from here, but AFAIK it's not widely used outside of google. I don't know if it's reasonable to want some amount public usage before a brand-new API goes into the standard library, but such use is more likely to uncover API flaws or quirks than a PEP.
