I'll have to think through this a bit more, but my gut is that it would be much more favorable for backwards-compatibility to clarify the documentation instead of changing the functionality. In any case, the change would only take effect in 3.8+, so it sounds like a backported documentation update is surely needed. Thanks for the thorough report! :) ---------- components: +Library (Lib) nosy: +emilyemorehouse type: -> behavior versions: +Python 3.8 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue34450> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
