[Python-Dev] PyEval_Call* convenience functions

Is there a reason that the PyEval_CallFunction() and
PyEval_CallMethod() convenience functions remain undocumented? (i.e.,
would a doc-and-test patch to correct this be rejected?)
I didn't see any mention of this coming up in python-dev before.
Also, despite its name, PyEval_CallMethod() is quite useful for
calling module-level functions or classes (given that it's just a
PyObject_GetAttrString plus the implementation of
PyEval_CallFunction). Is there any reason (beyond its undocumented
status) to believe this use case would ever be deprecated?
Thanks.
