There's no oversight.  We had PendingDeprecationWarning for
async/await names in 3.5, and DeprecationWarning in 3.6.  You just
need to enable warnings to see them:

~ ยป python3 -Wall
Python 3.6.2 (default, Aug  2 2017, 22:29:27)
[GCC 4.2.1 Compatible Apple LLVM 8.1.0 (clang-802.0.42)] on darwin
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> async = 1
<stdin>:1: DeprecationWarning: 'async' and 'await' will become
reserved keywords in Python 3.7

They are already keywords in 3.7, I've committed that change a month ago.
