While I'm little more than an interested bystander, I'm not clear what
*could* happen next. Can what's in nondist simply (!) be documented
and migrated to the standard library? Is there a need for a C
implementation (much like datetime started in Python but became C
before release)?

The module TODO comment just mentions "cleanup, hunt and kill bugs".
So it certainly sounds like it's nearly there...
