I had thought about this a while ago as well and never got around to
submitting patches. I think it would be a good idea to have more source
level annotations for extensions to mark compatibility with Mercurial,
Python, etc versions/environments. One could even imagine a configuration
mode where Mercurial refuses to load extensions unless they have
annotations indicating they are compatible. This would be a "safe" way to
transition from Python 2 to 3.
