The story is different for PySetUpdate(). Defining it now could get in the way of possible future development for the module (the function may end-up taking a variable length argument list instead of a single argument).

Would that really buy you anything much over just making multiple PySet_Update() calls? Is it just syntactic sugar, or is there some optimisation you can do with multiple updates presented all at once?
