I've made the request, and if/when a PEP-number is allocated, I'll move the discussion to python-dev. Thanks for the comments and suggestions.
I wouldn't wait for the PEP number. The PEP editors, just like anyone else, can get busy. Go ahead and keep working on stuff. If you write a PEP, just fill the number with XXXs and say it is a draft or proto-PEP when you post it somewhere. Lots of people have written entire PEPs before getting a number so it is not unexpected. As Guido said, get something on python-dev for people to discuss, even if it is as simple as the syntactic proposal part. -Brett
