-1 from me, too.  It's an unnecessary change, and the conversion from float to integer potentially expensive compared to the computation of the floating-point result (especially in extended floating-point implementations that allow a wider exponent range).

If this is about consistency between `//` and `math.floor`, I'd much rather see `math.floor` go back to returning a float instead of an int.
