    I think we have reached a point where adding porting-related facilities

AFAIK, The only porting specific feature is %s as a synonym for %b. Not pretty, but tolerable. Otherwise, I have the impression that the PEP pretty much stands on its own.

    in 3.5 may actually slow down the pace of porting, rather than
    accelerate it (because people will then wait for 3.5 to start porting
    stuff).

Or, they should download the source and compile and continue or start porting as soon as the bytes % is added. Having earlier Windows and Mac preview binaries might help a tiny bit.

If you are saying that Py3 development should not be driven by Py2 concerns, I agree.
