4 It seems like 3.4 and 3.5 are 100% compatible, and most ebuilds involving python in some way tolerate them both (any-of ( python_targets_python3_3 python_targets_python3_4 python_targets_python3_5)). Yet there are some that are still unhappy with 3.5. This makes me really annoyed and I was wondering if it was possible to write a simple script to add python_targets_python3_5 where needed. Would this break anything, and if no, why can't the maintainers or some portage-tree admin do it?

6 Of course there might be some other barrier to adopting 3.5 that I can't understand, so please explain it to me.
