Well, users can use the new features...

No. It's "we have that feature which will be activated in a future
version. If you want to use it today, use the __future__ import. If
you don't want to use it (now or in the future), just don't."

> And if people do complain, what are python-dev's options?

That will depend on the complaint. If it's "I don't like the new
feature", then the obvious response is "don't use it, then".
