Nick Coghlan added the comment:
Hmm, I just noticed an interesting issue here in drafting the 2.7 backport: as
near as I can tell, these aren't tested, so other implementations that failed
to provide them would pass the 2.7 and 3.3 test suites.

Oops, never mind - the tests are already there (and have been since MAL's
original commit prior to Python 2.4), I just fail at searching code.

Still need to backport this to 2.7
(Thanks for the preliminary patch Grant, but I'm afraid it didn't make it into
what I ended up committing)

This is only the second case I'm aware of where a particularly interesting
piece of functionality didn't get mentioned in the appropriate What's New doc.
For the other case, the zipfile execution support, we just added it in to the
2.6 What's New long after 2.6

So, why place them in What's New?

To advertise them? It should be explained that they are not new, but that now
they are documented and can/should be used.

I was not aware that such things are placed in What's New. I just looked at
such a document for 3.3... makes a lot of sense.

Note that in 2.7, these docs should have a :versionadded: 2.4 marker, while
in 3.3 and 3.4, they shouldn't have a version added marker at all.
These functions should also get an entry in the 3.4 What's New, even though
they're not actually new.

New submission from Nick Coghlan:
The codecs module has long offered encode() and decode() convenience functions
(since 2004: http://hg.python.org/cpython-fullhistory/rev/8ea2cb1ec598), but
they're not documented (except through docstrings). We should fix that.
From the docstrings:
