It would be nice tu cut tail of some legacy modules decencies.
One of those modules is html5lib
.
Describe the solution you'd like
it wold be good to remove use od=f the html5lib deprecated html5lib
like it has been done with pip ~2 years ago.
pypa/pip#11259
Describe alternatives you've considered
A clear and concise description of any alternative solutions or features you've considered.
Additional context
html5lib
depends on six
which is on list of deprecated modules even longer implanting this RFE would make easier kill two birds using one stone 😋
Bleach is deprecated and in a maintenance-only mode. See #698. Given that, I'm going to close this out.
Having said that, pip and Bleach used html5lib in radically different ways. I don't believe it's possible to switch Bleach over to use html.parser
. A change like that would probably involve a fundamental rewrite of Bleach. If someone was interested in pursuing that, they should do it as a new library.
