IMO, you should consider forking your library code for Python2 and
Python3. The multidialect code will look unidiomatic for each dialect.
When the critical mass favors Python3 (possibly within a couple of
years), the transition will be as total and quick as from VHS to DVDs.
At that point, a multidialect library would seem quaint, while a
separate Python2 fork can simply be left behind (bug fixes only).
