That argument falls flat with me and it doesn't show respect for our users.  The proposal would be a major change to the "rules of the game" and would likely require discussion and buy-in on python-dev and perhaps a PEP.

Please heed Antoine's advice.  This is his area of expertise, and he has suggested a plausible way to go forward.
