Please go ahead and send an email to steering-coun...@python.org.

I jumped the gun a bit and discussed this proposal with the SC when we had
some extra time in our meeting. The general sentiment is neutral to
positive, provided the operators chosen are | and |=. The sentiment for +
and += was distinctly negative. There were also some mumblings about the
text of the PEP, but nothing that couldn't be fixed by some editing. I
think Nick is going to send you a PR or at least a detailed critique.

There was also a question about OrderedDict. I haven't thought much about
it; I suppose someone should think about what's the right thing to do here.
Maybe ditto for some other common subclasses of dict, like defaultdict.

Good luck with the PEP!
