Yeah, I hesitated to assign a PEP number. I created a PR just to have a place
to put comments if people prefer to comment a PR rather than replying on
python-ideas, but someone merged my PR :-) It's my fault, it was
too early to propose a PR (and assign a PEP number).

I concur with feedback received on python-ideas: it's not a good idea
:-) The blocker point is really the global state and being to change
the compatibility version between imports :-(

We tried to put concrete constraints in the PEP to make avoid
proposing an "empty PEP" which could be completely ignored in practice
if nothing would be mandatory.

But the feedback was a strong rejection against the main idea proposed
in the PEP: block a release until "selected projects" are not
compatible.

My plan is now to work on the CI idea to provide a feedback on broken projects.

You're welcome ;-)
