Since it's a meta-PEP, but closely related to features, I've checked it
in with number 3099, that is, "first feature-PEP minus one".

Related question: as the current PEP 3000 contains mainly feature proposals,
shouldn't it be renamed to 3100? PEP 3000 could then be a quasi-summary of
3xxx PEPs and random important facts that don't fit elsewhere.
