As long as the PEP is formatted correctly and conforms to PEP 1 (PEP
Purpose and Guidelines), committers are welcome to handle their PEPs
directly. Less experienced PEP authors should send drafts to
peps at python.org for editorial guidance. The PEP editors are there to
help polish your text and avoid omissions & embarrassing errors.

IOW, as a committer you're welcome to short-circuit the PEP process,
but if you do, the egg will be on your own face ;-)
