My argument was that we should create a module distributed on PyPI,
and once that's stable, move it into stdlib. The suggestions in this
thread of moving things into stdlib has included a lot of new
features, and are as such not stable. I'm worrying that adding such a
thing to stdlib will do so in an unfinished state, and we'll just en
up with yet another state of semi-brokenness.
