I must say, I finally read this DIP after Amaury protested and 
had pretty much exactly this response, though I didn't check to 
see how often the DIP had been edited or worked on.  I don't know 
enough to comment on the merit of the underlying idea, but the 
proposal needed work.

I hope we can set up some kind of DIP review process where 
Mihails and other well-known community members, like Jonathan, 
Timon, Steven, or Amaury himself, can whip DIPs into shape before 
Walter and Andrei have to spend their valuable time reviewing 
them.

I can help a little with reviewing, though only for minor things 
like typos or argumentation, and will start doing so.
