More complete regex support coming in 2.7?

Looking through the python issue tracker, looks like they're working on almost my exact wishlist of missing features in python's re module.

Including:
  • possessive quantifiers, atomic grouping
  • (?flag:...), (?-flag:...) support, (?flag) scoped correctly
  • variable length lookbehinds
So all of this will be ready for 2.7, right? right?
