As Zach and MRAB mention, this was discussed last year. If I recall 
correctly, the discussion fizzled out without a solid conclusion. I 
think there's a PEP -- if not, there should be.

I would be interested in revisiting this idea, but 3.6 feature freeze is 
only a day or two away and I won't have time to discuss this before 
then. So let's please drop this discussion until the 3.6 beta is 
released.
