Terry J. Reedy added the comment:
LGTM, but after applying to all 3, leave open (or open new issue) to replace
patch in 3.6 (before beta 1).
Change signature to *items. That will automatically make a single string
become a len 1 tuple. For selection (list the 4 selops and) add a note. "For
back compatibility, one may also pass a single tuple (or list?) of items." and
Version Changed. For 4 derivatives, 'See selection.' In the code, instead add
(untested):
if len(items) == 1: # Remove after deprecation.
item0 = items[0]
if not isinstance(items[0], isinstance(str)):
raise DeprecationWarning(
<level arg>
"The option of passing multiple items as a tuple "
"rather than as multiple items is deprecated and "
"will be removed in 2020 or later.")
items = items0 # or more processing if lists were allowed
Revise test accordingly.
