Very nice, thanks. If I was to make a blasphemous suggestion I would even target it for Python 3.4. (No, seriously, this is a big issue - see the recent discussion by Armin - and the big names involved show that it is a major holdup of 3.x uptake.) It would of course depend a lot on how much code from unicode formatting can be retained or adapted as opposed to a rewrite from scratch.
Will the relevant projects actually support only 2.X and 3.4/5+? If they expect to or have to support 3.2 or 3.3, then this change isn't actually going to help them much. If they will only support versions of Python 3 containing this change, then it may well be worth considering the impact of delaying it till 3.5.
Paul.
