Most of your proposals are implementable today with a pure Python module,
albeit with some subclasses of built-ins. 

If you're serious about this, I'd suggest bundling all your suggestions
into a module and pointing people at them to try them out, including
several examples of the advantages you want to point out.

The best argument for proposals is to try it and find it useful, and since
yours are easy to implement, I'd suggest taking advantage of that.
