Of course!  The Python community accepts all optional stuff.  

Personally, I think you've done a great job getting this far, and the
fixes to LLVM alone are worth the effort, IMO.  That PEP is a great
interim project report.

If what you're really asking is, "will the Python community accept it
joyfully and enthusiastically, and embrace it to their hearts?", you'll
have to put in more work to demonstrate real advantages before the
answer is "yes", I'd think.
