Most of the time when I hear people say "the PEP process is too difficult", I eventually find that what they really mean is "learning the kinds of things that python-dev are likely to be worried about, and ensuring that the PEP adequately addresses their concerns, and listening to feedback, and reconsidering what I actually want, and revising my proposal, such that they eventually say yes is too time consuming".

Well, the PEP process is difficult and not only because you have to learn the kinds of things that python-dev are likely to be worried about. Getting a PEP accepted for a feature is much more work than getting a feature accepted in the bug tracker.
