I have the same opinion. I think this will negate all effort that the C/API
workgroup is trying to do - to limit leaking internals of cpython. I would
do this if there is no other way to move forward.
I would suggest convincing cpython core devs to move API sharing cpython
internals to unstable API tier [1] and to use it. Reasons:
1. This tier is intended for projects like cython ("Tools requiring access
to CPython internals (e.g. advanced debuggers and JIT compilers)" [2])
hence I think there won't be huge opposition to provide needed low-level
API for Cython.
2. Unstable tier has guaranteed stability for each major release so we will
avoid issues with changes in minor releases which can happen for internal
API
Please keep in mind that I am not involved in python API in any way so this
is just my personal opinion with very limited knowledge.
