Wasn't this part of the original discussion?  Extension modules are free to
call PyString_InternInPlace and may well expect immortal strings, so for
backward compatibility, the functionality probably has to remain for a time,
yes?

Of course, I'm speaking with my fake expert hat on.  I've never even
considered interning a string, immortal, immoral, or otherwise.
