From a Cython perspective, I find the lack of efficient subclassing after such a change particularly striking. That seriously bit me in Py2 when I tried making XML text content a bit more intelligent in lxml (i.e. make it remember what XML element it originated from). Having the same problem for unicode in Py3 doesn't sound like a good idea to me.
