This once seemed like a reasonable and innocuous idea to me; however, I've been using the 3.8 beta heavily for a month and no longer think it is a good idea. The warning crops up frequently, often due to third-party packages (such as docutils and bottle) that users can't easily do anything about.
Perhaps those packages could be flagged now via pylint and problems raised with the respective package maintainers before the actual 3.8 release? Checking the top 100 or top 1000 packages on PyPI?
Or it could be deferred until Python 4.0. Are there any other issues where we could say that from Python 4.0 you shouldn't do X?
