I think it makes sense to have

"Progamming Language :: Python :: Backport"

and

"Progamming Language :: Python :: Backport :: Standard Library"
 
While we're on the subject of classifiers, IMO it would also be helpful to be able to identify (the growing number of) projects which are 2 and 3 compatible without the need for 2to3 to be run. So perhaps

"Progamming Language :: Python :: Python2and3"

or some such.
