Fine idea.

I'm going to add, however, that I have found very little need for six in
writting pyton2/3 compatible code these days. So before you use it, ask
yourself if you really need to....

This is a nice overview:

https://docs.python.org/3/howto/pyporting.html

And I wonder if we should consider using python-future:

Anyone have experience with that?
