Terry J. Reedy <tjre...@udel.edu> added the comment:

My proposal F, to expose the common frequency threshold as a fourth positional 
parameter with default 1, would do that: repeat current behavior. We should, 
and Eli and I would, add some of the anomalous cases to the test suite and 
verily that the default is to reproduce the current anomalies, and that passing 
None changes the result.

Any opinions, anyone, on 'common', 'thresh', 'threshold', or anything else as 
the new parameter name?

We will have to explain in the doc patch that the parameter is new in 2.7.1 to 
fix a partial bug and that giving any explicit value will make code not run 
with 2.7 (.0).

Exposing the set of common values as an instance attribute, as I proposed on 
pydev, would be a new feature not needed to fix the bug. So it should be 
limited to 3.2.
