I have seen a couple of objections to leaving unbound methods naked (as functions) when retrieved in 3.0. Here is a plus.

A c.l.p poster reported that 2.6 broke his code because the addition of default rich comparisons to object turned tests like hassattr(ob, '__lt__') from False to True. The obvious fix ob.__lt__ == object.__lt__ does not work because wrapping makes it always False, even when conceptually true. In 3.0, that equality test works. (I pointed him to 'object' in repr(ob.__lt__) as a workaround. Others posted others.)
