I would be -0 if it did not install signal handlers by default and even better was implemented in a separate module, not in core. This feature is similar to the one that is implemented by R and with R, it was always a problem when R was embedded as a library. It has always been a welcome feature of Python that its core did not mess with the application global state. Before this is approved, I would like to see a discussion of the consequences for embedded Python and particularly for the case when there are multiple interpreters in the same process. I think it would be best to start with this feature as an library module or even as a 3rd party add-on and see how useful it will be found in the wild.
