I'm still resounding -1 on this. Grouping types together because they happen to be implemented in C is a silly thing to do. Groupings should be based on usage, not on implementation style. I successfully argued against the inclusion of all metaclasses in the abc.py module. This proposal would be even more wrong. You might as well insist that all decorators need to be placed in one module.
