FWIW, I've felt for a while that the "types" module is becoming a
catchall for stuff that would be more appropriate in a new
"classtools" module (a la functools).  I suppose that's what "types"
has become, but I personally prefer the separate modules that make the
distinction and would rather that "types" looked more like it does in
2.7.  Perhaps this would be a good time to get that ball rolling or
maybe it's just too late.  I'd like to think it's the former,
especially since I consider "classtools" a module that has room to
grow.
