It would be easier if add a new function instead of a new keyword argument to the existing function.
We've implemented the new zip in our sitecustomize.py, and think the keyword makes it easier. I've instructed our development staff to examine all use of zip as they come across them and add either "strict=True" or "strict=False" when they've determined which is appropriate. Any zip calls without an explicit "strict=" will be deemed "unknown" and requiring further investigation.
