I've created https://bugs.python.org/issue44498, so we can continue the
discussion there.

Once we remove the libraries, we could create a list of all open issues,
put this list in another issue, link to it from what's new and then close
all issues (including the one with the list). This way the known bugs will
not be lost in case someone wants to maintain the code outside the stdlib.
