The only conceivable snag I can think of would be people who may be using custom--but unshared--plugins that require Python 2.7.x. If there are any, though, I can't imagine it affecting very many at all. And I'd be more than willing to help anyone convert such plugins to Python 3 if they came forward.

The only question would be how to handle python2.7-only plugins moving forward. Do we simply allow them to error out, or display a message that the plugin needs to be updated to Python 3 before it will work (or perhaps simply display them in the Plugin Manager in red and allow them to error)?

If we do remove 2.7 support (and I think I'm for it), I'm assuming the "engine" tag in the plugin.xml file would become superfluous? It certainly wouldn't need to be displayed in the Plugin Manager anymore.
