It's an incompatible change; it would definitely break my code, however I think it should be wishlisted for an API-break release like 3.5 or 4.0 or something like that. IMHO, the bindings should be "pythonic", even if the underlying library isn't.

In addition, maybe we could add a readline.set_zero_based_indexing() function? I could write a patch for this perhaps...
