[New-bugs-announce] [issue34386] Expose a dictionary of interned strings in sys module

[Artem Golubin]

New submission from Artem Golubin <me at rushter.com>:

Python provides an ability to intern strings (sys.intern). It would be useful to expose a read-only dictionary of interned strings to the Python users so we can see what kind of strings are interned. 

It takes minimal changes since internally it's just a dictionary. Is this worth adding to the sys module?
