I'm OK with that, because there really is no benefit in maintaining Python 2.7 compatibility, especially since the Windows version comes with a Python 3.4 interpreter and all required libraries.

Also the last time I checked, only one or two very old plugins with relatively low download counts supported only Python 2.7.
I.e., this move won't cause problems for the majority of end users, because all existing plugins will automatically fall back to Python 3.4 in the absence of a Python 2.7 path.
