That's something we should probably publicise better. People seem
unaware of it (in much the same way that they never really noticed zip
application support). Maybe we could include a section in the Python
3.6 "What's new" (even though it's not technically new - but I did a
quick check of What's New back to 3.2 and couldn't see any mention)?
