I wrote PEP 606 "Python Compatibility Version" which tries to address a similar problem, but with a different approach: https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0606/
It mentions PEP 497 by the way ;-) It has been discussed at: https://mail.python.org/archives/list/python-id...@python.org/thread/SETZ6U7Z2VOLXN6DSCN7NJ5KOKLAXM3O/ But I'm not sure of my own idea :-) The PEP doesn't support updating a project one file after the other. It's more a all-or-nothing global approach.
