Chris and I chatted with Jim about this over beers last Friday. I explained that the current 'py3; branch does not require the 'zodbpickle everywhere' stuff (the Python2 side doesn't use 'zodbpickle'). Jim then agreed that we could merge that branch before releasing 4.0. We will need to add some caveats to the docs / changelog (Python3 support is only for new applications, no forward- / backward-compatibility for data, etc.) Given that ZODB won't import or use 'zodbpickle' under Python2, I don't think we need to remove the current Python2 support (as released in 0.4.1): the Python3 version (with noload()) has been there all along.
