Guido van Rossum <gu...@python.org> added the comment:

Why would it be a feature?  There is no change in semantics, only in speed.  Do 
we have a policy that forbids performance enhancements in bugfix releases?  (It 
doesn't really matter, I'm just curious.  Also, if it really was a feature 
request, it couldn't be introduced once the 3.3 beta has started, which would 
strike me as silly.)

Anyway, I don't think my hack should be applied literally; I was more thinking 
of memoizing the translation table and inlining the _translate call.
