Since the 2to3 patch by Graham Higgins also requires Py 2.4, dropping 
2.3 support would be a step forward I think.

If we drop it, I am willing to go through the code and simplify it based 
on Py 2.4 (use decorators etc.)

But I suggest creating a final 1.2.5 release with Py 2.3 support before 
doing this and then having a 1.3 which requires Py 2.4 after the 
overhaul, maybe already with Graham's patch.
