I wouldn't mind having a little more breathing room. It's frustrating to miss the train, but these bugs are several decades old so I guess nothing terrible will happen if their fixes get delayed to 3.9.

And I could put that extra time to good use, as starting to flesh out the proxy implementation showed that we're missing a lot of scaffolding to help make it easier to define new low level mapping types without duplicating a lot of code.

I'll update the PEP headers accordingly.

Cheers, Nick.
