How about taking this dicussion to comp.lang.python and providing more
examples of use cases.  I think you should probably be able to throw
together a PEP for a library without too much trouble, but it'll take a
lot of convincing to make the push for a builtin type.  As with sets and
Decimal, plan on starting with a pure-Python module; finding one already
in the wild that people use would be even better.
