Seems nice. Just write a library and upload it to one of the usual places?

This is sometimes a nice function to have. For example, Haskell has a
similar function:
https://hackage.haskell.org/package/base-4.18.0.0/docs/Data-List.html#v:intercalate
that I use in real code every once in a while.
But I don't think you need to stick this function in the standard library.

Does it have any use case that's not already served by functools.partial?
As far as I can tell, this proposal would turn buggy code that currently
throws an obvious exception into code that silently does the wrong thing.
This seems more appropriate for PHP or
What's the use-case for this?
Have you looked into using functools.partial instead?

Btw, just to give some context:
The reason we need sentinels at all is because our APIs don't like to wrap
the happy case.
As an example:
So in Python, when you do {'a': 'foo'}.get('a') you get 'foo' directly.
That's convenient.
In eg Haskell the equivalent operation gives you a wrapped 'foo'.

You can't really do
Hi Brian,
It sounds like a high quality third-party library that has both a multiset
implementation and the itertools you needed would fulfill most of your
requirements?
Code in the standard library isn't magically of higher quality. Compare eg
standard library dataclasses with dataclassy.
