Has there been any discussion yet about StringIO vs cStringIO and pickle vs cPickle?
While I appreciate that there are maintained pure Python versions of those modules, as a user it irritates me that I have the choice. The argument so far for not replacing StringIO with cStringIO was that they're subtly incompatible (mostly StringIO's "feature" to support unicode, right?), so Python 3000 seems like a good time to reconsider that option. I don't see any reason to not always want to prefer the faster version.
