I'm gong to mark the PEP as final once we finish implementing it (still
need to update os.path: http://bugs.python.org/issue27182). Considering we
have updated the PEP once already based on implementation lessons I don't
want to rush flipping its state.

As for not being in What's New, I have a tracking issue and that doesn't
need to happen by b1 so I'm not spending time on it yet (
http://bugs.python.org/issue27283).
