Steve Dower <steve.do...@python.org> added the comment:

I'm in favour of this change in principle, but would want to look at the PR 
closely.

The biggest risk here is that we have to emulate GNU readline for 
compatibility, which severely limits the data that can be passed through, and 
also forces multiple encoding/decoding passes. It would be nice to be able to 
bypass this in cases where nobody is using it, though since so many host 
applications use hooks there'll likely only be a benefit to people at the plain 
console...
