I agree that a PEP should be written for anything that is going to be accepted; I disagree that the whole point of the PEP mechanism is to avoid losing valuable information. Instead, I think the purpose of the PEP processis to focus the discussion, so all people know they are talking about the same thing, and you can better tell what remarks are off-topic, and avoid endless repetition of the same observations. In this discussion, I think PEP 273 helped to focus the discussion, as every proposal for a new import mechanism had to show that it can provide the feature of that PEP (i.e. zipfile imports).
