AFAICT, there are two primary, perhaps identifying, parts to a PL extension: code management (compilation, execution,
etc)and type I/O (conversion in most PLs). (well, aside from the language itself =) 

My proposed extension chooses a different design for both of those parts.

It didn't make sense to try and incrementally change PL/Python because I would have been rewriting the whole thing
anyways.Not to mention breaking user code in the process for the mentioned parts--thus the Python 3 target. 

Hope this clears things up.
