Feature requests are supposed to stay open until they are either implemented, withdrawn, or rejected for good. If you want to express that some requests are more important than others (so that they ought to go into 2.3, instead of P3k), you should give them a higher priority.

If you look at it this way, yes. It's just that setting the Group to e.g. P3k would tell the submitter that the request is being considered, but won't get implemented until a few releases from now or that a specific request won't make it into e.g. Python 2.2 because of a feature freeze. Anyway, it's just an idea.

BTW, I also think that we could use the feature request tracker to track all the PEP 42 requests and redirect PEP 42 to the tracker.
