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

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
