> * no forward movement for a year and half

For most of that year and a half my pull-request was sitting in Github 
<https://github.com/python/cpython/pull/6121> awaiting review by two core devs, 
of which you Raymond, were one. I don't like to hassle people who contribute 
their free time to Python and assumed you or the other reviewer would get 
around to it good time. Mark Dickinson kindly reviewed the my changes shortly 
before the 3.8 window closed, but I didn't have capacity to follow up before it 
was too late. The changes Mark wanted were largely to do with in-code 
documentation rather than the the substance of the change.

Assuming it really is too late for 3.8, even if I made the changes Mark wanted 
immediately, I would like to see this change in 3.9.

> * opposition from multiple core devs

Guido approved the change in a pronouncement on python-dev.
