Still, binary compatibility seems like a fairly strong reason not to remove the closure field.
My understanding is that there a) 2.x extension modules are not binary compatible with 3.x, and b) there are essentially no 3.x extension modules in the field. Is that accurate? If we don't have an installed base (yet) to worry about, now's the time to make this change.
cx_Oracle at least uses this closure field, and has already been ported to 3.x: http://www.google.com/codesearch?q=Connection_SetOCIAttr+trunk -- Amaury Forgeot d'Arc
