Eh?  The 2.6 version would also be u('that').  That's the whole point
of the idiom.  You'll need a better counter argument than that.
So the idea is to convert the existing 2.6 code to use parenthesis as
well? (I obviously haven't read the PEP -- my apologies.)

Well, if you didn't, you wouldn't have the same sources on 2.x and 3.x.
And if that was ok, you wouldn't need the u() function in 3.x at all,
since plain string literals are *already* unicode strings there.

True -- but I would rather have u'' in 2.6 and 3.3 than u('') in 2.6 and 3.3.
