That doesn't follow. A PoC and even IPython can ignore all kinds of
*technical* issues (e.g. giving code that's valid today a different
meaning). Please drop this idea or at least take it out of this thread and
focus on what *can* and *should* be done, in particular adding warnings
with good hints about what went wrong when Python 3 encounters what appears
to be a print statement.
