+ - Issue #10968: Remove indirection in threading.  The public names (Thread,
+   Condition, etc.) used to be factory functions returning instances of hidden
+   classes (_Thread, _Condition, etc.), because (if Guido recalls correctly) this
+   code pre-dates the ability to subclass extension types.  It is now possible to
+   inherit from Thread and other classes, without having to import the private
+   underscored names like multiprocessing did.
+ 
+ - Issue #9723: Add shlex.quote functions, to escape filenames and command
+   lines.
+ 
 +- Issue #12603: Fix pydoc.synopsis() on files with non-negative st_mtime.
 +
 +- Issue #12514: Use try/finally to assure the timeit module restores garbage
 +  collections when it is done.
 +
  - Issue #12607: In subprocess, fix issue where if stdin, stdout or stderr is
    given as a low fd, it gets overwritten.
