For those who missed it, in http://bugs.python.org/issue14302, Martin recently commented:

""" After more discussion, it appears that this change is too incompatible to be done in a single release.

Therefore, I propose a long-term change into this direction, with the actual change not happening until 3.5.

"""

While I'm still unclear on the actual benefits of this, Martin's approach strikes a reasonable compromise so I withdraw my objections.

Thanks,

Mark
