Quite true, but I thought operator.identity was dead and buried. Can you update issue1673203 if some decision was made? Note that in msg55022 I said: "If [the identity] proposal is accepted, it will make sense to deprecate the use of None as an identity function in map." So there may be no disagreement at all.

Quite true, but I thought operator.identity was dead and buried.  Can 
you update issue1673203 if some decision was made?

Note that in msg55022 I said: "If [the identity] proposal is accepted, 
it will make sense to deprecate the use of None as an identity function 
in map."  So there may be no disagreement at all.
