Hum, if a trace or profile function is written in Python, reading
frame.f_locals does call PyFrame_FastToLocalsWithError(). So a Python
debugger/profiler would be ok with your code.

For a debugger/profiler written in C, it would be a backward
incompatible change. I agree that it would be reasonable to require it
to call PyFrame_FastToLocalsWithError().

Incompatible changes should be well documented in What's New in Python
3.10. In this case, I don't think that a deprecation period is needed.

Just open an issue. Please post the URL to your issue in reply to your
email. It's even better if you can write a PR to implement your idea
;-)
