If it can be shown that this is a pure win (that is, it improves code for 2.3.4, but is both backwards and forwards compatible, then I don't mind. I _do_ mind if we end up with the horror of 2.2.2's not-really- booleans, which has resulted in FAR FAR too much code of the form: try: True, False except: True, False = 1, 0 I do not wish to see something like this again.
