Oops. Mercurial is too hard for me /o\ I didn't want to push this change, since Serhiy already pushed the change itself. I asked Serhiy what he thinks about documenting the optimization. Well, now at least it's documented in NEWS. But I'm still interested to know if it's worth to mention the change in What's New in Python 3.6?
