How do you plan to test a thousand packages against the new version of
python, and then revision/stabilize all of the broken ones immediately?
Or is the plan to just break everyone's systems, and ask them to report
bugs for the things that stopped working?
I think what you will actually get as a result is that nobody will ever
add a new version of python to the tree, because you've just made it a
huge ordeal to do so.
