Python 2.7 is in bug-fix mode; no new features are allowed it it. In addition, there won't be another 2.x release (see PEP 404), so new features can only be added to Python 3. If this means that you'll lose interest in this issue - that's fine. Let us know whether you then would rather withdraw the patch, or leave it open in case someone is motivated to port it. In the latter case, please submit a contributor's form to the PSF.

are allowed it it. In addition, there won't be another 2.x release
(see PEP 404), so new features can only be added to Python 3.
