The much more likely thing to happen is that people stick to Python 2
or build broken stuff on Python 3. Or they go with Go. Which uses an
even simpler model than Python 2: everything is a byte string. The
assumed encoding is UTF-8. End of the story.
I have similar feelings, except that I'm not convinced Go is the answer.
