I don't understand this. An established algorithm might be cryptographically safer, but what could be easier to use than the default algorithm that is built-in?
That's exactly what I want: it (PEP 427) should use one of the algorithms that is built-in (into web signatures). Web signatures give a choice of three algorithms; yet Daniel proposes to deviate and use a non-builtin algorithm. None of the algorithms in question are built in in Python; the two standard algorithms with public keys (i.e. RSA and ECDSA) are both built into OpenSSL.
