I thought about this some more. The real question is: what should the world be like once Cython 3.0 is out? What we want to do for Cy3 is to change the default behaviour, which mostly impacts Py2/3 ported code. That's why we now warn about a missing "language_level" switch. When people respond to that and set the language level explicitly, that makes them opt out of the default change. Perfect so far. Do we then still want to have a separate option floating around that says "but I want str" ? I don't think so, because that will be the default in Cy3 anyway. Thus, what I think we want is that people either specify the language level explicitly, or get the new default. And to get the new default *now*, in a future proof way, I think the best option is to set an explicit language level, not a separate directive. Thus, I now agree with Jeroen's early intuition that a new language level switch is the right interface. I'll change the implementation to do what I wrote in the quoted paragraph above and push a new RC.
