Well, you could propose changing the for loop syntax (and by extension
comprehensions and generators). It's a much more radical proposal, but it does
keep consistency across the board, which is one of the major flaws of the PEP
in its current form.
BTW, there is already an "until" keyword in python, it's called "while not" ;)
