Yes, I have been persuaded this fixes a security issue in the Python 2
ecosystem: the current barriers to good web security practices are too high.

I have been vocal in pointing out that Python 2 will remain a commercially
supported platform for at least another decade. However, for that to be a
valid claim, it needs to be possible to make effective use of modern web
protocols and security standards.

This is a PEP level discussion though - I'll get something up by tomorrow.
