I personally think this is a good idea, and ideally it would come with support
“and”, “or”, and parenthetical for grouping and deprecate (but not remove)
support for comma as and and. We actually already support this inside of
environment markers just not in the version specifiers. So you can do something
like ``python_version == “2.7” or python_version >= “3.4”`` in environment
markers and that works but it doesn’t work in other scenarios where it’s useful
(such as in requires_python).
Overall I’m +1, not sure if it would be a new PEP or an amendment to the
current PEPs but I think it’s a good idea.
