  If "div" is it, I'd rather see it made a keyword and a warning
published to the community soon so that people have a chance to check
their code and either make it compatible with the change or scream
ahead of time.
  A tool to help them out wouldn't hurt, either, and that could be
written before any actual changes are made or even final decisions are
made -- it could search everything on sys.path and report on uses that
would be affected by each candidate change.
