I think this is the crux of the issue. Are we trying to say "porting your existing code will be easier", or "change your existing code to this new library, and we'll provide the library on 2.x and 3.y" (for some values of x and y). I think the former is the right way to go, but I also think if we do that we should shoot for 3.4, and this would necessitate a delay in 3.4. Providing this feature for 3.5 might be too late for the target audience of code porters.
