You may "not care" about backwards compatibility, but introducing a
breaking change in 3.2 for mere style-conformity is not OK, IMO. If the patcher
insists on it being a breaking change, it should be rejected.<br>
<br>
FWIW, this casing is sufficiently bizarre and inconsistent in the module
itself, that it seems clearly wrong and likely to produce difficulties for
people using it-- so although I'm not upgrading to Python3 anytime soon,
I'd really like to change my code to be BadZipFile when I do, so I'd be
+1 with an alias. :)<br>
