Why not? Python2.2 is rarely in use anymore and users of this would get
the same behavior. Users of python2.3 and up would get the additionally
cleaned boolean interface - also users which go the from __future__
import ... way. Thats how python works and develops forth and we should
not work against that from postgres side.
So I'm indeed +1 for conditional approach.
