Mainly because it is an unrelated grab bag of types that could be put in
more topical locations - what they're for is more interesting than the
mere fact that they happen to be types.
As it turns out, the cleanup for Py3k (removing the members which are
merely aliases for existing names) has already cut it down to only a few
types which are closely related to the interpreter core.
Cheers,
Nick.
