I'd like to resolve a long-standing issue of the stable ABI in 3.4: http://bugs.python.org/issue17162
The issue is that, since PyTypeObject is opaque, module authors cannot get at tp_free, which they may need to in order to implement tp_dealloc properly. Rather than providing the proposed specific wrapper for tp_dealloc, I propose to add a generic PyType_GetSlot function. From a stability point of view, exposing slot values is uncritical - it's just that the layout of the type object is hidden. Any objection to adding this before RC1?
